Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I loved a triple [Gm]spira[G]l
My [Bm]maiden mother [A]crow
I [D]folded my de[F#m]vo tio[F#]n
to [Bm]an orig[A]ami rose
So [Bm]out her ten feet [A]window,
she [D]said to look be[G]low
Could I [D]see the town was burn[Gm]ing?
Could I [D]see the broken pris[G]on?
Could [Em]I see that it was
[A]time for me to go?
[D]

[Verse 2]
They looted the mu[G]seum,
Took [Bm]all that they could h[A]old
[D]A motorcade of [F#]flatbed trucks
Made [Bm]off with with quite a h[A]aul
And [Bm]that's when I heard
[A]someone shout
"In with [D]new, out with the [G]old!"
[A]A dusty box of let[Em]ters
[G]A rus[D]ty suit of armor[G]
[Em]A casket made [A]of
14 carat gold
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
That's [F#m]the problem[Bm]
No sense [A]of time
She [D]changes [C#]like an [F#]hourglass
[Bm]They're play[Em]ing on th[A]e side
[D]

[Verse 4]
I loved you triple [G]spiral
[Bm]Father, son, and [A]ghost
But you [D]left me in my [F#m]darkest [F#]hour
When [Bm]I needed you,
when I [A]needed you
Now [Bm]that the dream is [A]over,
I [D]want it to be [G]known
[D]I never saw you com[Gm]ing
From my [D]little human [Gm]prism
[G]How[Em] sad it is to kno[A]w I'm
in control
[D][G]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]
That's the problem,
[F#m]an emp[Bm]ty sky[A]
[D]I fill it [C#]up with ev[F#]erything t[Bm]hat's miss[Em]
ing [A]from my [D]life[Bm]
Where'd you come [F#m]from,
[Bm]you faded sign[A]?
[D]Spinning [C#]through the cen[F#]turies
[Bm]Expanding [Em]all t[A]he time
[D]

[Verse 6]
[Gm]
Three worlds at once that
[G]blend togeth[D]er[G]
Three times I cried for us
But [A]I felt better then

[Verse 7]
I [D]loved you triple spir[Gdim]al
My [Bm]maiden mother [A]crow
[D]You found me in this fal[F#m]lowed [F#]state
My [Bm]mind was off and [A]stow
I [Bm]heard your strange commo[A]tion
And [D]wished I could go [G]home
To [D]live a little [G]longer
[D]A full Indian sum[Gm]mer[G]
[Em]Long enough to [A]carve you into
[D]stone

[Outro 1]
