Flying Dutchman

Jethro Tull

Continúa después del anuncio
Tono:
Em D Cmaj7 Old lady with a barrow; life near
D ending
Em D Standing by the harbour wall;
Cmaj7 D warm wishes sending
Am D children on the cold sea swell ---
F G D not fishers of men ---
Am D G gone to chase away the last
Em herring:
Am G D come empty home again.
F G So come all you lovers of the good life
F G D on your supermarket run ---
F G Set a sail of your own devising
C G and be there when the Dutchman
D comes,
Am G you'd better be there when the
D B Dutchman comes.
Em D...
Em D Cmaj7 Wee girl in a straw hat: from
D far east warring
Continúa después del anuncio
Em D Sad cargo of an old ship:
Cmaj7 D young bodies whoring
Am D Slow ocean hobo ---
F G D ports closed to her crew
Am D G Em No hope of immigration ---
Am G D keep on passing through.
F G So come all you lovers of the good life
F G D your children playing in the sun ---
F G Set a sympathetic flag a-flying
C G and be there when the Dutchman
D comes,
Am G you'd better be there when the
D B Dutchman comes. Instrumental: Am Em D x4 D C D x5 (?)
Em D Death grinning like a scarecrow
Cmaj7 D --- Flying Dutchman
Em D Seagull pilots flown from nowhere
Cmaj7 D --- try and touch one
Am D as she slips in on the full tide
F G D and the harbour-master yells
Am D G All hands vanished with the captain
Em ---
Am G D no one left, the tale to tell.
F G So come all you lovers of the good life
F G D Look around you, can you see?
F G Staring ghostly in the mirror ---
C G D it's the Dutchman you will be
Am G D ..floating slowly out to sea
C in a misty misery.
