Ok. Let's get a few things straight. First of all, you need to strum this,
not pick it. You need to tune down a half-step, but I'm just going to call
them by what they would normally be. Here are the chords needed to play
this song. Some of the timing is kinda weird, but that is a given in most
Tori Amos songs. You can listen to the song to get all the timing and
also to get the exact structure.
Eb----3--------3--------3--------3--------0-------
Bb----3--------3--------3--------3--------0-------
Gb----0--------2--------0--------0--------0-------
Db----0--------0--------2--------2--------2-------
Ab----2-----------------2--------3--------2-------
Eb----3-----------------0-----------------0-------
Tears on the sleeve of a man, don't wanna be a boy today
Heard the eternal footman bought himself a bike to race
And Greg he writes letters and burns his CDs
They say you were something in those formative years
Hold onto nothing as fast as you can well still
Pretty good year
Maybe a bright sandy beach is going to bring you back, back, back
Maybe not so now you're off, you're gonna see america
(little breakdown)
Well let me tell you something about america
Pretty good year
Some things are melting now
Some things are melting now
Well hey What's it gonna take til my baby's alright
What's it gonna take til my baby's alright
And Greg he writes letters with his birthday pen
Sometimes he's aware that they're drawing him in
Lucy was pretty, your best friend agreed still
Pretty good year
Ok. That's it. If you're tuned a half-step down, then I guarantee you that
this is the closest you can come to having a perfect guitar tab for this
song. Unlike some of these morons I see everywhere, I don't submit a tab
unless I know it's right.
