god
by tori amos
from the album *under the pink*

note on chords:  any piano music, not to mention tori music specifically,
does not translate into guitar music very well.  in fact, trying to do
this with any of tori's stuff is akin to some sort of blasphemy.  take
this for what it is worth... this song actually transcribes a lot easier
than most tori songs, but the chords are still a little off at best due to
tori's unique chord choices... 

note on tablature:  I didn't bother to tab out all the 
pick scrapes or the many variations on the main riff, as 
I can't imagine a better way to waste our time. Have fun 
with what's here. Write me with any questions but "When
are you going to finish this?", and any comments but "You 
forgot to finish this." Rock on.
