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.

Capo IIIrd Fret
INTRO D Dsus2 C
Am Cmaj7 G D F (Fmaj7) D Dsus2
There's the stillness of death on a deathly unliving sea,
Am Cmaj7 G D F (Fmaj7) D Dsus2
and the motor car magical world long since ceased to be,
Am Cmaj7 G D F (Fmaj7) D Dsus2
when the Eve-bitten apple returned to destroy the tree.
C D C D
Incestuous ancestry's charabanc ride,
C D C D
spawning new millions throws the world on its side.
G C G Gm Cm7
Supporting their far-flung illusion, the national curse,
G D F C D
and those with no sandwiches please get off the bus.
Am Cmaj7 G D F (Fmaj7) D Dsus2
The excrement bubbles, the century's slime decays
Am Cmaj7 G D F (Fmaj7)D Dsus2
and the brainwashing government lackeys would have us say
Am Cmaj7 G D F (Fmaj7) D Dsus2
it's under control and we'll soon be on our way
C D C D
to a grand year for babies and quiz panel games
C D C D
of the hot hungry millions you'll be sure to remain.
G C G Gm Cm7
The natural resources are dwindling and no one grows old,
G D F C D
and those with no homes to go to, please dig yourself holes.
C Am G D Dsus2
We wandered through quiet lands, felt the first breath of snow.
C Am G D Dsus2
Searched for the last pigeon, slate grey I've been told.
C D G Em D Em (1) G
Stumbled on a daffodil which she crushed in the rush, heard it sigh,
D Dsus2
and left it to die.
Em G D C D Dsus2
At once felt remorse and were touched by the loss of our own,
Em G D C D Dsus2
held its poor broken head in her hands, dropped soft tears in the snow,
Dm C G Em D
and it's only the taking that makes you --- what you are.
C Am G D Dsus2
Wond'ring aloud will a son one day be born
C Am G D Dsus2 Em D Dsus2 (2)
to share in our infancy in the child's path we've worn.
C D G Em D Em G
In the aging seclusion of this earth that our birth did surprise
D
we'll open his eyes.
