Leather
by Tori Amos
off of Little Earthquakes
Chords for the piano intro/verse are offered in the LE songbook.
This is the heavily distorted electric guitar part that goes with
them.
guitar 1(heavy distortion)-
I could just pre - tend that you love me The night
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------|
A--3--------2-----------1-------------0---------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------4-----|
would lose all sense of fear But why do I
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-------------------------------0---------------------------|
A----------------------------------2--------------------2---|
E---------3---------2-----------------3-1----3--------------|
need you to love me when you can't hold
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------|
A---1-----------h3p0----------------------------------------|
E--------------------------------4-----------3--------------|
It sounds to me like there are two guitars during the end of this
part but I only transcribed the lower one. Let me know if you figure
out the higher.
The guitar part during the piano solo is similar to the above.
I'm not exactly sure about this next part. It could be this:
an angel
E---------------------|
B---------------------|
G---------------------|
D----------3----------|
A------------6-3------|
E----------------5----|
Or maybe one of these:
E---------------|----------------|
B---------------|----------------|
G---------------|----------------|
D---3-----------|--3--1----------|
A------6--3--0--|--------3--0----|
E---------------|----------------|
They're all essentially the same so just play whichever one you like
best. Afterwards the guitar picks up around "fear" in the above.
Oh God could it be the weather
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------|
A---6----------------------------------6-\13-/(6)-6---------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
This next part goes overtop of the above eventually:
E-----------17b-17-17r--------------------------------------|
B--16~~~~~~------------16~~~~~~~~~~16-18-19-16~~~~~~~~~~~---|
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
E-----16----16----16-18-------------------------------------|
B--16----16----16-------16~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
It should be accurate but you're welcome to tell me(gently) if it's
not. Enjoy.

Look I'm standing naked before you
Don't you want more than my sex
I can scream as loud as your last one
But I can't claim innocence
Oh god could it be the weather
Oh god why am I here
If love isn't forever
And its NOT THE WEATHER
Hand me my leather
I could just pretend that you love me
