I [E]loved a Triple [A]Spiral, my [C#m]maiden-mother-[B]crone
I [E]folded my d[G#m]evotion into an [C#m]origami [B]rose
Stood[C#m] at her Tiffany [B]window, she [E]said to look [A]below
Could I [E]see the town was [A]burning?
Could I [E]see the broken [A]prison?
Could I[F#m] see that it was [B]time for me to [E]go?
They [E]looted the mu[A]seum and took[C#m] all that they could [B]hold
A [E]motorcade of [G#m]flatbed trucks made [C#m]off with quite a [B]haul
[C#m]That’s when I heard [B]someone shout,
“In with the [E]new! Out with the [A]old!”
A [E]dusty box of [A]letters
A [E]rusting suit of [A]armor
A[F#m] casket made of [B]fourteen karat [E]gold
[C#m] That’s the[G#m] problem
[C#m] No sense of [B]time
She is [E]shaped just [EMaj7]like an [G#m]hour[C#m]glass there [A]laying on [B]her[E] side

I l[E]oved you Triple S[A]piral–[C#m]father, son and [B]ghost
But you [E]left me in my [G#m]darkest hour when I [C#m]needed you,
when I [B]needed you
Now[C#m] that the dream is[B] over I [E]want it to be [A]known
That I [E]never saw it [A]coming
Through my [E]little human [A]prism
How [F#m]sad it is to [B]know I’m in con[E]trol
[C#m] That’s the[G#m] problem
[C#m] An empty [B]sky
I [E]fill it[EMaj7] up with [G#m]every[C#m]thing that is [A]missing [B]from my [E]life
[C#m] Where did you [G#m]come from?
[C#m] You fated [B]sign
[E]Spinning [EMaj7]through the [G#m]centur[C#m]ies ex[A]panding [B]all the [E]time
[A] Three worlds at once that blend to[E]gether
[A] Three times I cried for us but [B]I felt better then
I [E]loved you Triple [A]Spiral, my[C#m] maiden-mother-[B]crone
You [E]found me in this [G#m]fallow state, my [C#m]mind was off and [B]stowed
I [C#m]heard your strange com[B]motion and [E]wished I could go [A]home
To [E]live a little [A]longer
A [E]full Indian [A]summer
[F#m]Long enough to [B]carve you into [E]stone
