Amber Waves
Tori Amos

Verse 1:
             B           A/C#               E
Well he lit you up like Amber Waves in his movie show
                     B
He fixed you up real good
      A/C#             E
'til I don't know you anymore
     B                 A/C#                   E
From ballet class to a lap dance straight to video
                  B
And the pool side news
         A/C#         E
Was that he would be launching you

Pre-Chorus:
     B      A/C#       E
Into every young man's bedroom (you gave it up)
     B      A/C#       E
On DVD and magazine (you gave it up)
     B      A/C#       E
A private rite of passage (you gave it up)
     B      A/C#       E
To every boy's sweet dream With their paper cuts

Chorus:
    F                           Am
You said "he's got a healing machine
                F                  G
It glows in the dark, glows in the dark"
     F                               Am
You say "there's not a lot of me
        F                     Em
Left anymore, just leave it alone
    D                     C
But if you're by and you have the time
          Am       G              D
Tell the Northern lights to keep shining
Am        G                   D
Lately it seems like they're drowning"

Verse 2:
           B
He could light you up
     A/C#                     E
And summon every swan to the Lakeside
                B              A/C#    E
Off to Cabo San Lucas for some optical stimulus
         B                          A/C#
Then you started to guess there was someone else
           E                         B
Though His flint glass seeing all of you
A/C#             E
Immersed in his sepia

Pre-Chorus:
     B      A/C#       E
Into every young man's bedroom (you gave it up)
     B      A/C#       E
On DVD and magazine (you gave it up)
     B      A/C#       E
A private rite of passage (you gave it up)
     B      A/C#       E
To every boy's sweet dream With their paper cuts

Chorus:
 F                           Am
You said "he's got a healing machine
                F                  G
It glows in the dark, glows in the dark"
     F                               Am
You say "there's not a lot of me
        F                     Em
Left anymore, just leave it alone
    D                     C
But if you're by and you have the time
          Am       G              D
Tell the Northern lights to keep shining
Am        G                   D
Lately it seems like they're drowning"

Outro:
     D               C
So I went by cause I had the time
              Am       G              D
And told the Northern Lights to keep shining
     Am         G                D
They told me to tell you they're waving
