Verse 1 chords:
C majorC                           G+G
Golden ratio, the shell, stares at sand around themselves
  C majorC   G+G       FF     C majorC
The trees rustle as if to kneel and listen
  C majorC             G+G          C majorC
The heartbeat of a lark or a lark in my heartbeat
C majorC                             G+G
The oxygen and priestly green, Hanel's dressed in labryrinthine
  C majorC     G+G         FF       C majorC
The telescopes atop the mountains of ecstatic fission, listen
  C majorC            G+G          C majorC
The heartbeat of a lark or a lark in my heartbeat, hey, hey, hey, hey


Chorus 1 chords:
FF   C majorC      FF    C majorC     A minorAm    G+G        FF     C majorC
 I am assured, yes, I am assured, yes, I am assured peace will come to me
FF       C majorC    FF       C majorC     A minorAm    G+G
 A augmentedA peace that can, yes, surpass the speed, yes,  of my understanding
FF       C majorC  [start intro riff]
They're in my need


Verse 2: [use verse 1 chords]
A augmentedA meteor wortquarp[?] and when, can it balance in the sparks of her ascending
The aero-time shoots forward though it moves through repitition
The heartbeat of a lark or a lark in my heartbeat, hey, hey, hey, hey
What is it that drives the driven snow now
Upon his temples will I rest my weary hopes now
The rain distills then steeples fills the years of lonely church mice
With the heartbeat of a lark or a lark in my heartbeat, hey, hey, hey, hey


Chorus 2: [use chorus 1 chords]
I am assured, yes, I am assured, yes, I am assured peace will come to me
A augmentedA peace that can, yes, surpass the speed, yes, of my understanding
They're in my need
