Biography:
Jethro Tull is a progressive rock / folk rock band which formed in Blackpool, Lancashire, England in 1967. Their music is marked by the initially soulful and bluesy, and later expressively idiosyncratic, vocal style and unique lead flute work of frontman Ian Anderson, and their notable guitarist Martin Barre. Their songs feature unusual and often complex construction, incorporating elements of classical and celtic folk music, as well as art rock and alternative rock.

Orion

on Stormwatch
F#m D F#m E->
Orion, won't you give me your star sign
F#m D F#m E->
Orion, get up on the sky-line
F#m D F#m E->
Orion, I'm high on my hill and I feel fine
F#m D F#m-->E.....
Orion, let's sip the heaven's heady wine
Am F G Am
Orion, light your lights: come guard the open spaces
F G Am F G
from the black horizon to the pillow where I lie.
F F G E Am
Your faithful dog shines brighter than its lord and master
F G Am F G
Your jewelled sword twinkles as the world rolls by.
Am F C C/B Am
So come up singing above the cloudy cover
F G Am F G
Stare through at people who toss fitful in their sleep.
F F G E Am
I know you're watching as the old gent by the station
F G Am F G Am E
scuffs his toes on old fag packets lying in the street
F#m D F#m E->
Orion, won't you give me your star sign
F#m D F#m E->
Orion, get up on the sky-line
F#m D F#m E->
Orion, I'm high on my hill and I feel fine
F#m D F#m-->E.....
Orion, let's sip the heaven's heady wine
[Rest the same]
And silver shadows flick across the closing bistro.
Sweet waiters link their arms and patter down the street,
their words lost blowing on cold winds in darkest Chelsea.
Prime years fly fading with each young heart's beat
Orion, won't you make me a star sign
Orion, get up on the sky-line
I'm high on your love and I feel fine
Orion, let's sip the heaven's heady wine
And young girls shiver as they wait by lonely bus-stops
after sad parties: no-one to take them home
to greasy bed-sitters and make a late-night play
for lost virginity a thou - sand - miles --- a - way.
[Last CHORUS: add two lines below]
Orion, won't you make me a star sign
Orion, get up on the sky-line
I'm high on your love and I feel fine
Orion, let's sip the heaven's heady wine

Love is the sky-line
