Jethro Tull

Too Old To Rock N' Roll Too Young To Die

by Jethro Tull
Jethro Tull

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.

C F C G C Bb
The old Rocker wore his hair too long
Am Dm G
wore his trouser cuffs too tight
C F C G C Bb
Unfashionable to the end --
Am Dm G
drank his ale too light

G C G D G F
Death's head belt buckle --- yesterday's dreams --
Em Am D
the transport caf' prophet of doom
G C G D G F
Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams in his
Em Am D
post-war-babe gloom
Eb F Bb C F Bb F Eb A Dm
Now he's too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die

Eb F Bb C F Bb F Eb Bb F
yes he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die

REST THE SAME

He once owned a Harley Davidson and a Triumph Bonneville
Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
and prays that he always will
But he's the last of the blue blood greaser boys
all of his mates are doing time
married with three kids up by the ring road
sold their souls straight down the line
And some of them own little sports cars
and meet at the tennis club do's
For drinks on a Sunday --- work on Monday
They've thrown away their blue suede shoes

Now they're too old to Rock'n'Roll and they're too young to die

So the old Rocker gets out his bike
to make a ton before he takes his leave
Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
just like it used to be
And as he flies --- tears in his eyes --
his wind-whipped words echo the final take
and he hits the trunk road doing around 1
with no room left to brake

And he was too old to Rock'n'Roll but he was too young to die
No you're never too old to Rock'n'Roll if you're too young to die
