Tori Amos – Precious Things (Live)

[G7+]
So I ran faster, but it caught me here
[G7+]Yes my loyalties turned
Like my ankle, in the seventh grade
Running after [G7+]Billy, running after, the rain

These precious things
Let them bleed
Let them wash away
These, I said oh precious things
Let them break, their hold over, me[G7+]

He said you’re really an ugly girl
But I like the way, yo[G7+]u play
And I died, I died
But I thanked him, can you believe that, sick
Holding up to[G7+] his picture, dressing up, everyday
I wanna smash the faces, of those beautiful boys
Those ch[G7+]ristian boys, beautiful boys
I said, christian boys, beautiful boys
I said, [G7+]Christian boys
So you can make me cum that doesn’t make you Jesus

These precious things
Let them bleed
Let them wash away
These, I said oh precious things
Let them break, their hold over, me[G7+]

[G7+]I remember, yes
In my peach, party dress
[G7+]No one dared, no one cared to tell me
Where the pretty girls [G7+]are
Those demigods
With Their Nine-Inch Nails And Little Fascist Panties Tucked Inside The Heart Of Every Nice
Girl[G7+]

I can’t let you let you go, ah yes
Precious,[G7+] precious, things..

happy phantom by tori amos from her album little earthquakes

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ——————

intro: Bb G Ab F

and if i die today i’ll be the happy phantom

and i’ll go chasin the nuns out in the yard

and i’ll run naked through the streets without my mask on

and i will never need umbrellas in the rain

i’ll wake up in strawberry fields every day

and the atrocities of school i can forgive

the happy phantom has no right to bitch

oo hoo the time is getting closer

oo hoo time to be a ghost

oo hoo every day we’re getting closer

sun is [Bb/D]getting dim

will we pay for who we been?

yeah

so if i die today i’ll be the happy phantom

and i’ll go wearing my naughties like a jewel

they’ll be my ticket to the universal opera

there’s judy garland taking buddha by the hand

and then these seven little men get up to dance

they say confucius does his crossword with a pen

i’m still the angel to a girl who hates to sin

oo hoo the time is getting closer

oo hoo time to be a ghost

oo hoo every day we’re getting closer

sun is [Bb/D]getting dim

will i pay for who i been?

yeah

solo: G Em7 | F C
G Em7 | F D
G Em7 | F C

or will i see you dear and wish i could come back?

you found a girl that you could truly love again;

will you still call for me when she falls asleep?

or do we soon forget the things we cannot see?

oo hoo the time is getting closer

oo hoo time to be a ghost

oo hoo every day we’re getting closer

sun is [Bb/D]getting dim

will i pay for who i been?

yeah

outro solo: Bb Gm7 | Ab F9sus4
Bb Gm7 | Ab F9sus4
Bb Gm7 | Ab F9sus4
and if i die today

Bb: x 1 3 3 3 1
Gm7: 3 5 3 3 3 3
Ab: 4 6 6 5 4 4
F9sus4: 1 3 1 3 1 3
Bb/D: x 5 3 3 6 x
F: 1 3 3 2 1 1
F7: 1 3 1 2 1 1
Em7: 0 2 2 0 3 0
D: x x 0 2 3 2
C: x 3 2 0 1 0
Eb: x 6 8 8 8 x
Em: x x 2 4 5 3
G: 3 2 0 0 0 3

of note: of course, this is a piano song, so this is, at best,
a bad hack transcription. the F7 isn’t the usual F-flatted 7th that
you might see ( 0 3 3 2 1 0 ) so be careful with that.

i play the intro Bb by hitting the three higher strings first, then the
root, like this:

e| 1
b| 3 3 3 /4 1
G| 3 3 4 /5 2
D| 3 3 5 /6 3
A| 1 5 /6 3
E| 1 3 /4 1

(altho the song doesn’t have that low F (E string, first fret,) i play it
in unison with the Bb to make it sound thicker.)
