The Light Of The Heart

Intro E B/D# C#m7 E/B A E/G# F#m F#m7 [Verso 1] E B/D# The marketplace is quiet now, the hunger for the gold has fled, C#m A But a subtler thief is waking in the silence of your head. E He traded iron chains for silk, and pride for humble prayer, C#m A But the one who seeks the mountain peak is the one who put it there. A E The costume changes color, from the scarlet to the white, F#m7 Bsus4 But a shadows just a shadow, even in the clearest light. [Refrão] E C#m Let the seeker dissolve in the sea, A E Bsus4 Where the "I" is no longer the key. E Beyond the becoming, the struggle, the climb, C#m G#m Is the pearl of the present, the stillness of time. A E B/D# C#m A E Light of the heart, setting us free. [Verso 2] E B/D# You count your steps of progress like a merchant counts his gain, C#m A But a golden cage is still a cage, a holy chain is pain. E B/D# Who is this "one" who meditates? Who claims the inner throne? C#m7 A Look deep into the mirror till the mirror stands alone. A E No fireworks in the heavens, no drums to mark the way, F#m7 Bsus4 Just the falling of the heavy clouds before the break of day. [Refrão] E C#m Let the seeker dissolve in the sea, A E Bsus4 Where the "I" is no longer the key. E Beyond the becoming, the struggle, the climb, C#m G#m Is the pearl of the present, the stillness of time. A E C#m A E Light of the heart, setting us free. [Ponte] A E It is not a battle to win or to lose, A E Not a path that the ego can choose. C#m A E When the "me" is exposed in the glare of the soul, F#m The fragment returns to the heart of the whole. [Refrão] E C#m Let the seeker dissolve in the sea, A E Bsus4 Where the "I" is no longer the key. E Beyond the becoming, the struggle, the climb, C#m G#m Is the pearl of the present, the stillness of time. A E Light of the heart, setting us free. Outro B/D# C#m A "I am the sky, watching the clouds of thought." E B/D# C#m "Resting in the Silence that hears all sound." A E/G# F#m "No seeker, only the seeking. No me, only the Being." A E B/D# C#m7 A E The light I see is the light I am.
