Tori Amos (born Myra Ellen Amos on 22 August 1963) is an American pianist and singer-songwriter.  Having already begun composing instrumental pieces on piano, Amos won a full scholarship to the Peabody Institute at Johns Hopkins University, the youngest person ever to have been admitted, at age five. She was expelled at age eleven for, in her own words, insisting on playing by ear and because of her interest in popular rock music.  

Myra Ellen Amos (appelée Myra Ellen) est la fille du Dr. Rev. Edison et de Mary Ellen Amos. Elle est née le 22 août 1963 à l'hôpital Old Catawba à Newton (Caroline du Nord) lors d'un voyage de ses parents depuis leur maison à Georgetown jusqu'à la Caroline du Nord. Lorsqu'elle eut 2 ans et demi, sa famille déménagea à Baltimore dans le Maryland où elle commença à jouer du piano ; elle allait à l'église de son père chaque semaine. 

Tori Amos (* 22. August 1963 als Myra Ellen Amos in Newton, North Carolina) ist eine US-amerikanische Sängerin und Musikerin.  Sie verwendet als eine der wenigen populären Musiker ein Klavier als Hauptinstrument. Bekanntheit erlangte sie seit den frühen 1990er Jahren vor allem durch ihre lyrischen und gefühlsbetonten Texte. Inhaltlich variabel, deckt sie gerne Themen wie Sexualität, Religion, Patriarchat und persönliche Schicksalsschläge ab.

Tori Amos, nacida Myra Ellen Amos el 22 de agosto de 1963 es una cantante, pianista y compositora de origen estadounidense. Está casada con el técnico de sonido inglés Mark Hawley. Tienen una hija, Natashya &quot;Tash&quot; Lórien Hawley, que nació el 5 de septiembre de 2000.  Abordando temas que incluyen sexualidad, religión, y tragedia personal, ella ha construido una sólida base de simpatizantes. Con instrucción clásica, la voz de Tori y su música, basada principalmente en el piano, es frecuentemente comparada con las de Kate Bush, Bj&ouml;rk y Joni Mitchell. 

According to Songfacts, Amos penned this song after the failure of her synthpop band Y Kant Tori Read. In  Crucify, she digs deep inside herself to reveal the discouragement of expectations never met, utilizing various religious symbolisms to expose her hurting psyche. 

G                    Am     F           G
  Every finger in the room is pointing at me.
                      Am          F                
I wanna spit in their faces. Then I get afraid of what that could bring
        G                  Am       F           G
I got a bowling bowl in my stomach. I got a desert in my mouth.
                Am                   F                
figures that my courage would chose to sell out now

Bridge1:
          A#             F               Gm    D#
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
F              Gm       D#                F
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
          A#            F                   Gm     D#
I've been raising up my hands, drive another nail in
           Cm   Gm          D#      F 
Just what god needs: one more victim.

Chorus:
       Gm A#          F     D#      F    
Why do we  crucify ourselves ever-y-y 
Gm   A#          F       D#        
day I crucify myself. And nothing I do is good
 Gm           A#          F   D#      F  
enough for you. Crucify myself ever-y-y
Gm   A#          F      Cm              Gm
day I crucify myself. My heart is sick of being
        D#                Cm
'Said my heart is sick of being in
Gm                       A#       Gm     Cm
Chai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ains    o-o-o-oh.
Gm                       A#       D#       Cm
Chai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ains    o-o-o-oh.

Verse:
Got a kick for a dog begging for love
I gotta have my sufferings so that I can have my cross 
I know a cat named Easter. he says: will you ever learn?
you're just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird.

Bridge1:
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets.
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets.
I've been raising up my hands, drive another nail in.
Got enough guilt to start my own religion.

(Chorus)

Bridge2:
G          A#     F    G          A#    F
Please     believe      Save       me
G          A#   F      G    A#     F
I          cry-a-ay-aaaahay ahay  ahayn


(Bridge1)
Looking for a savior in these dirty streets.
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets.
I've been raising up my hands, drive another nail in.
Where are those angels when you need them?
 
(Chorus)

Never going back again no 
to crucify myself (again) - every day

Precious Things is a song from Tori Amos' debut album &quot;Little Earthquakes&quot; in which the singer-songwriter tells us about painful events that happened to her during her teenage years. The text basically paints the picture of a girl experiencing intense cruelty among a group of adolescents. She wrote the song in her early 20's, looking back on this chapter of her life, trying to find ways to realease her pain. Here we have both the girl's and the young woman's point of views expressed. Tori Amos named it 'Precious Things', ironically, because this song isn't meant to express pleasant memories.

I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G

             F                    C                G

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories

In spite of ourselves
                             C
We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
             G
Against all odds
                          C
Honey, we're the big door prize
             F
We're gonna spite our noses
                 C
Right off of our faces
                                    G
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
               C     G   C
Dancin' in our eyes.
