What ya gonna do when the light
                    B7  Bb7
Slips from your eyes?
     Ebm
And what will you keep bar the penny
                        B7  Bb7
In your fist for the tide?

[Refrão]

   Eb       Gm             Cm        Fm     
Become the joke because you can't let go

You suffer hurt because you can't let go

Give the penny to the boatman
         B7           Bb7
See he guides you well
  Ebm
Reflect upon the water
                 B7    Bb7
As you reflect upon yourself

   Eb       Gm           Cm            
This river always will be here

Always rushing here
  Gm              Cm    Eb  Bb
All traces disappear

 Eb                  Fm
So, as equanimity shows
             Fº                 
To try and stay in control
               Eb
And not fall apart
 Eb                    Fm
Slow, the ataraxy will grow
                   Fº
As the shepherd has shown
                      Cm   Gm
Gentleness and kindness
 Cm            Gm         Cm   Gm
Is what our world needs now
 Cm            Gm
Find it in my heart somehow
 Ab           Bb
Oh yeah you know

And soon, equanimity blooms

Giving scent to the room

You might not have noticed

Ah, and so, some self control

Might save the day

Which is worth saving
