Triple Spiral

	  		  E              A          C#m           B 
I loved a Triple Spiral, my maiden-mother-crone 
  E          Abm             C#m     B  
I folded my devotion into an origami rose 
     C#m             B           E            A 
Stood at her Tiffany window, she said to look below 
        E                A 
Could I see the town was burning? 
        E              A 
Could I see the broken prison? 
       F#m              B              E 
Could I see that it was time for me to go? 

     E            A            C#m                  B 
They looted the museum and took all that they could hold 
  E            Abm                 C#m              B 
A motorcade of flatbed trucks made off with quite a haul 
C#m                 B 
That’s when I heard someone shout, 
             E                 A 
“In with the new! Out with the old!” 
  E            A 
A dusty box of letters 
  E               A 
A rusting suit of armor 
 F#m             B              E 
A casket made of fourteen karat gold 

C#m           Abm 
    That’s the problem 
C#m             B 
    No sense of time 
       E           Emaj7   Abm C#m         A         B  E    
She is shaped just like an hourglass there laying on her side 


   E                A     C#m             B 
I loved you Triple Spiral–father, son and ghost 
        E             Abm                 C#m 
But you left me in my darkest hour when I needed you, 
       B 
when I needed you 
   C#m               B       E             A 
Now that the dream is over I want it to be known 
       E            A 
That I never saw it coming 
           E            A 
Through my little human prism 
    F#m          B              E 
How sad it is to know I’m in control 

C#m          Abm 
   That’s the problem 
C#m         B 
   An empty sky 
  E      Emaj7    Abm  C#m           A       B       E                           
I fill it up with everything that is missing from my life 
C#m              Abm 
   Where did you come from? 
C#m          B 
   You fated sign 
E        Emaj7       Abm   C#m   A       B       E 
Spinning through the centuries expanding all the time 

A                                  E 
 Three worlds at once that blend together 
A                               B 
 Three times I cried for us but I felt better then 

  E                A         C#m            B 
I loved you Triple Spiral, my maiden-mother-crone 
    E                Abm              C#m              B 
You found me in this fallow state, my mind was off and stowed 
  C#m                   B          E                 A 
I heard your strange commotion and wished I could go home 
   E             A 
To live a little longer 

  E           A  
A full Indian summer 
F#m            B              E 
Long enough to carve you into stone
