Chords for Jethro Tull - BBC Lively Arts Documentary 1979 - Part 1

The old man up there in the sky.
[Ab] I should have met you in the air.
Say, say, put the kettle on, we'll be up there in a minute.
This one is dedicated to the great misunderstood.
[F] My God. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[A] _ He [B] found one happy [Am] dove. _
_ _ _ [Dm] Locked him in [A] his golden _ cage.
[Am] A golden [B] cage. _
_ _ [A] The maiden [B] bent to your [Am] religion.
_ _ [B] _ Him [Am] resurrected from the grave.
_ [Dm] A [Am] broken _ [A] grave.
_ _ [D] He is the [G] God of nothing.
If that's all that you [Am] can see. _
[B] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [B] _ _
[Dm] _ [D] You are [G] the God of _ everything.
[C] He's inside [D] you and me.
_ [A] _
_ [B] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Am] _ _
[B] I could understand if I was a mountaineer and I could [E] come out with that glib answer of,
[Eb] because it's there, that's why I have to climb it.
Music isn't there.
It's bloody hard to find.
I [Gb] suppose if you believe in being born to do something, that's what I think I'm supposed [E] to be doing. _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Dm] _ _ [E] Here from [Eb] your social [Dm] graces.
_ [Eb] Oh, _ and the sand you used to [B] wave.
_ You used to [E] wave.
_ [Eb] _
_ [D] The blood that [G] turned to venegar. _
In a change of [Em] history.
_ [G] _
We came into [E] our successful period as a product of fashion.
And we have retained out of the public gaze [F] a level of continued success in terms of selling seats,
you know, bums on seats at concerts and record sales and so on,
just by dint of carrying on doing it and not being fashionable any [A] longer.
_ _ [E] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ [G] _ One, _ [A] _
[C] two, three.
Hello Wattoke, Hello Tessick, Tessick, Mr.
Burr.
[D] _ _ [Gm] Three, three.
OK. _ _
[Eb] One, two, [Cm] _ _ [Bb] three. _
_ [Fm] _ Ian Anderson, as a music writer, as a person, is very [Eb] articulate, very precise.
[Gm] And he places huge [Bb] demands on himself and he expects other [F] people to do the same.
_ _ _ [C]
I remember one year we did about 200 [G] flights in one year.
I joined for the first week and I must say I began to miss home.
Stopped counting the days after the second week.
But, you know, I just feel very fortunate that I can earn a living doing what I like doing.
_ [Ab] And it means going away for a lot.
So it makes [F] sense.
Hi Dad.
[G] Let's go, come on.
_ So much is going through when [Gb] you go out and do a show.
Especially in America, the kids are [F] so much behind you.
[Fm] _ Very, [G] very good.
It's hard to be blasé, but it's nice [Gm] being nervous.
And I'd like to be nervous a lot [G] more.
I've done it so many times, [E] it has become normal.
_ _ [F] _ _ [B] My mother was a piano [Bb] teacher.
My [C] parents were very keen that I should play the piano, for which I'll obviously be [G] eternally grateful.
[Fm] And also wonder what I would have [F] done if they hadn't have been so keen.
[F] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [Cm] _
Just [G] do a couple of vocal harmonies and songs from the Woodfellows. _ _
Let me hear you sing, Sugar Boy. _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ Let [Ab] me bring you love from the fields
Poppies [G] red and rose, that's fell in [F] the summer rain
[G] Let the world feel [F] the pain
The threatens [F] again and again
[G] As you drag down every [F] lover's flame
Life's not [Eb] a celebration, [G]
see
_ Why cause you all this [Fm] pain? _
[C] _ _ _ Let me bring you [F] all things of mine
[Eb] Valley hearts send their [F] songs of chilling hail
_ [G] Greetings of wealth and [F] tell of hail
I am the wind [F] to tell your tale
[G] I am the crops [F] to take your nail
[Bb] I paint a [Eb] romanty's [G] dangerous night
_ With its emperors and [C] godly _ rhymes
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ I [E] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [Em] _ found a woman, I made [D] her feel the [E] summer
I found a woman, I [D] made her feel the summer _
