Ok, here's my version of Winter by Tori Amos as far as I could
figure it out. It's hard to play Tori's ingenious music on guitar
but I decided to give it a shot.
This is definitely _not_ the original key, but I didn't
manage to get any closer yet. But maybe this helps some of
you to get it right. I'd be happy to get corrections
and suggestions at twist@uni-paderborn.de
Winter - Tori Amos
Snow can wait I forgot my mittens
wipe my nose get my new boots on
Get a little warm in my heart when I think of Winter
I put my hand in my father's glove
I run off where the DRIFTS GET DEEPER
sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice "you must learn to stand up
for yourself cause I can't always be around" he says
when you gonna make up your mind <-play after this line>-2--0-------
-3--3--3----
C D -------2----
when you gonna love you as much as I do ------------
------------
C D ------------
when you gonna make up your mind
cause things are gonna CHANGE so fast
all the white horses are still in bed
I tell you that I'll always want you near
you say that things change my dear
boys get discovered as winter MELTS
flowers competing for the sun
years go by and I'm here still waiting
withering where some snowman was
mirror mirror where's the crystal palace
but I only can see myself
SKATING around the truth who I am
but I know dad the ice is getting thin
hair is grey and the and the fires are burning
so many dreams on the shelf
you say I wanted you to be PROUD of me
I always wanted that myself he says
when you gonna make up your mind
when you gonna love you as much as I do
when you gonna make up your mind
cause things are gonna change so fast
all the WHITE HORSES have gone ahead
I tell you that I'll always want you near
you say that things change my dear
NOTE: I think it sounds better if you don't play all the
chord changes but let the previous chord fade and
play about every second chord.
