Aqualung

  1. Eddie Sheehy
    Another Tull Classic. This is a tab I'm working from. I originally got a a guitar tab with chords in Em and a tab that was in Dm so I readjusted them to match. I haven't tried the solo yet but I'll post it anyway...

    Sit-ting on a park bench - eye-ing lit-tle girls - with bad in-tent
    Snot is runnig down his nose -greassy fingers smearing - shabby clothes- Hey Aqualung
    Drying in the cold sun - watching as the frilly - panties run - Hey Aqualung
    Feeling like a dead duck - spitting out pieces of - his broken luck - Oh Aqualung


    Verse chords

    Dm ...............C................................G
    Sun streaking cold an old man wandring lonely,
    Gm.................Dm................C
    taking time the only way he knows.
    Dm...................C............................ .G
    Legs hurting bad as he bends to pick a dog end .
    Gm ................. Dm ..................... C
    He goes down to the bog and warms his feet.

    Dm ..........C......................... G
    Feeling alone the army's up the road,
    Gm..............Dm.................... C
    salvation a la mode and a cup of tea.
    Dm.................C ...............................G
    Aqualung my friend, don't you start away uneasy.
    Gm ............. Dm ............... C
    You poor old sod see it's only me.

    (faster and heavier)
    Dm ................ C............................ Dm
    Do you still remember,Decembers foggy freeze
    ........................ C
    when the ice that clings onto your beard
    Dm
    was screaming agony?
    ................. C.................................... Dm
    And your ratling last breaths with deepseadiver sounds
    ....... Gm........... Dm............................. C
    and the flowers bloom like madness in the spring.
