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.

it glows in the dark, glows in the dark:
    F#                        A#m
You say "there's not a lot of me 
           F#                 Fm
left anymore - just leave it alone.
    Eb                     Db
But if you're buy, and you have the time, 
           Db      C#maj7           A#m
tell the Northern Lights to keep shining - 
Db          C#maj7           A#m       G*
Lately it seems like they're drowning"

Home On The Range - Cherokee

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

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.
