>From in the shadow…

Jamaica Inn – Tori Amos

Can you patch my jeans Peggy Ann –
just a little stitch to mend the hole
he has torn
if you can

maybe I got too set in my ways
he says she reminds him of me
when we first met
in those early days…

the sexiest thing is trust

I wake up to find
the pirates have come[(G)]
tying up along your coast

how was I to know
the pirates have come
between Rebecca’s
beneath your firmaments
I have worshipped
in the Jamaica Inn
in the Jamaica Inn

with the gales my little boat was tossed
how was I to know that you’d sent her
with a lantern
to bring me in

“Are you positive this is a friend?”
the captain grimaced,
“Those are cliffs of rock ahead
if I’m not mistaken.”

the sexiest thing is trust
I wake up to find
the pirates have come
tying up along your coast
how was I to know
the pirates have come
between Rebecca’s
beneath your firmaments
I have worshipped

the sexiest thing is trust
I wake up to find
the pirates have come
tying up along your coast
how was I to know
the pirates have come
between Rebecca’s
beneath your firmaments
I have worshipped
in the Jamaica Inn
in the Jamaica Inn
in the Jamaica Inn
in the Jamaica Inn

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..

Past the mission behind the prison tower
past the mission I once knew a hot girl
past the mission they’re closing every hour
past the mission I smell the roses

She said they all think they know him [(sus4)]well
she knew him better better better
everyone wanted something from him
I did too but I shut my mouth
he just gave me a smile

Hey they found a body

not sure it was his still they’re using his name and
she gave him shelter and somewhere I know she knows

somewhere I know she knows
somethings only she knows…

under my petty coat.

the power of listening to what,
you don’t want me to know.

Can somebody tell me now who is this terrorist
those girls that smile kindly then rip your life to pieces.
Can somebody tell me now am I alone with this-
this little pill in my hand and with this secret kiss
am[-] I alone in this…

A matter of complication
when you become a twist
for their latest drink
as they’re transitioning

Can somebody tell me now who is this terrorist
this little pill in my hand that keeps the pain living
Can somebody tell me now a way out of this
that sacred pipe of red stone could blow me out of this kiss
am I alone in this…

The power of orange knickers
under my petty coat.

the power of listening to what,
you don’t want me to know.

Shame shame time to leave me now
Shame shame you’ve had your fun
shame shame for letting me think that I would be the one

Can somebody tell me now who is this terrorist
this little pill in my hand or this secret kiss, kiss
am I alone in this kiss

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.)
