Cruel Acoustic Live chords by Tori Amos

Verse 1:

A#m         D#m
So don’t give me respect
        C#          G#
Don’t give me a piece of your preciousness
A#m             D#m
Flaunt all she’s got in our old neighborhood
  C#           G#
I’m sure she’ll make a few friends
A#m        G#
Even the rain bows down let us pray
  Fm           G#
As you cock-cock-cock your mane
A#m       D#m
No cigarettes, only
       G#   Fm
peeled Havanas  for you

Chorus:

     A#m
I can be cruel
C#       F#
  I don’t know why
G#       A#m     C#
  Why can’t my balloon stay up
   F#       G#
In a perfectly windy sky?
     A#m
I can be cruel
C#       F#
  I don’t know why
Fm       A#m
  I don’t know why


Verse 2:

A#m
Dance with the Sufis
D#m        Fm
Celebrate your top ten
         G#
in the charts of pain
A#m       D#m
Lover brother Bougainvillea
  Fm           G#
My vine twists around your need
A#m        D#m
Even the rain is sharp like today
  C#         G#
As you sh-sh-shock me sane
A#m       D#m
No cigarettes, only
       Fm   G#
peeled Havanas  for you


Chorus:

     A#m
I can be cruel
Fm       F#
  I don’t know why
G#       A#m     C#
  Why can’t my balloon stay up
   F#       G#
In a perfectly windy sky?
     A#m
I can be cruel
C#       D#m
  I don’t know why
Fm       A#m
  I don’t know why
