Spiral

E           Abm         A
I could be daydreaming but for a 
moment
and somehow they're creeping back in
I could be sleeping and wake in a 
torrent
somehow I get cought in their grips 
again

            A  B      C#m    B
and here I am in my shame spiral
I'm sucked into it again
and I reach out for your benevolent 
opinion
           A          B      C#m 
and you bring the light back 
   B   E
in.... ooooh

E                B               
don't leave me here with all 
     A
these critical voices cause they
do the best to bring me down, bring 
me down
when I'm alone with all these 
negative voices I will
need your help to turn them down, 
turn them round

E           Abm         A
I could be listening to a 
conversation
a story I'm not even in
these voices have their way when I 
am unguarded
suddenly I step in quicksand again

         A  B      C#m    B
Once again in my shame spiral
       A         B      C#m    B   E
I am glad that you weigh in... ooooh

E                B               
don't leave me here with all 
     A
these critical voices cause they
do the best to bring me down, bring 
me down
when I'm alone with all these 
negative voices I will
E                B               
need your help to turn them down,
     A        C#m
 turn them round

C#m           B      F#m   B
All these judgements so incisive
C#m      B      A      B
voices left to their devices
C#m   B         F#m      B      
this woman's neuroses a 
  C#m
desperate plea
      A          B      E B A  
for slack to be cut to me.... 
         E B A       E
cut to meeeeeeee... oooh

E                B               
don't leave me here with all 
     A
these critical voices cause they
do the best to bring me down, bring 
me down
when I'm alone with all these 
negative voices I will
need your help to turn them down, 
turn them round
