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.

JETHRO TULL - WIND UP
SUBMITTED BY: DAVID JONES
D Em7 D F#
When I was young and they packed me off to school
G D Asus4 Asus2 A A
And taught me how not to play the game,
D Em7 D F#
I didn't mind if they groomed me for success,
G D Asus4 Asus2 A A
Or if they said that I was a fool.
D Em7
So I left there in the morning
D F#
With their God tucked underneath my arm --
G D Asus4 Asus2 A A
Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules.
D Em7
So I asked this God a question
D F#
And by way of firm reply,
G D Asus4 Asus2 A
He said -- I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.
D Em7 D F#
So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares):
G D Asus4 Asus2 A
Before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers --
D Em7
I don't believe you:
D F#
You had the whole damn thing all wrong --
G D Asus4 Asus2 A
He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.
G A D Bm G
Well you can excomMunicate me on my way to Sunday school
G A Bm
And have all the bishops harmonize these lines --
Bm
How do you dare tell me that I'm my Father's son
G D F#
When that was just an accident of Birth.
Bm
I'd rather look around me -- compose a better song
G D F#
`cos that's the honest measure of my worth.
Bm
In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me,
G D F#
As you lick the boots of death born out of fear.
Bm
When I was young and they packed me off to school
G D F#
And taught me how not to play the game,
Bm
I didn't mind if they groomed me for success,
G D F#
Or if they said that I was a fool.
Bm
So I left there in the morning
Bm
With their God tucked underneath my arm --
G D F#
Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules.
G A D Bm G
Well you can excommunicate me on my way to Sunday school
G A Bm
And have all the bishops harmonize these lines --
D Em7 D F#
When I was young and they packed me off to school
G D Asus4 Asus2 A A
And taught me how not to play the game,
D Em7 D F#

I hope you enjoy this...Let me know if there is anything you think should be
