Dm (xx0231@1)                    FI (133211@1)split the atom of one second
                   C (x32010@1)Choosing history's lathe 
                          BbEach (x1333x@1)word summons now the next
                DmA (xx0231@1)master to his slave

DmCountless (xx0231@1)links 
            FWithin (133211@1)some silent chain
         C (x32010@1)                                 BbAnd (x1333x@1)time becomes the sediment that drifts to algae
                      DmDivorced (xx0231@1)from comets' trains

Dm (xx0231@1)               FIn (133211@1)the East, a reflection
               COf (x32010@1)the Western sunset
                      BbNorth, (x1333x@1)South, pole to pole
                       
Turn back in regret

Dm (xx0231@1)                    FAnd (133211@1)to the East I might stumble
                    CTo (x32010@1)the West I would crawl
                    BbAnd (x1333x@1)if North is the winter
                  CThen (x32010@1)South is the fall
