Verse:
 DmDm
The tipping of scales
              C majorC
And the balance of time precede it
 DmDm
The ticking of clocks
          C majorC
In silent homes admit it
    Bb majorBb
Larks ascending
    FF
Clash with planes

Verse:

O my soul, what will I do to feed them

What I’m left with, I don’t know

The things that you’re shown

In shades of blue

And in a small side street of contemplation
 C majorC
He lost it

He lost it
