thick as a brick2 — текст песни (Jethro Tull)

this is the poet and the painter part
of the essential Tull song THICK AS A BRICK
hope u like it


CAPO 3

play these cords during the awesome flute solo,
but you gotta listen to the song for timing


Em D Em D G Am Am4 B D Em D Em F G C D

then:


Em D Em D
the poet and the painter casting shadows on the water
D D
as the sun plays on the infantry
Asus2 B
returning from the sea
Em D Em D
the do-er and the thinker, no allowance for the other
D D
as the failing light illuminates
Asus2 B
the mercenary`s creed
Em D Em D
the home fire burning, the kettle almost boiling
D D
but the master of the house
Asus2 B
is far away
Em D Em D
the horses stamping, their warm breath clouding,
D D Asus2 B
in the sharp and frosty morning of the day
G D B D Am C
and the poet lifts his pen while the soldier shifts his sword

Em D Em D
and the youngest of the family is moving with authority
B Am C C/G
building castles by the sea, he dares the tardy tide
G Bb
to wash them all aside

then there are the solos

play Em D Em D Em D during the solos

the rest is the same

the cattle quietly grazing at the grass down by the river
where the swelling mountain water moves onward to the sea
and the builder of the castles renews the age-old purpose
and contemplates the milking girl whose offer is his need
the young men of the household have all gone into service
and are not to be expected for a year
the innocent young master, thoughts moving even faster
has formed the plan to change the man he seems
and the poet sheats his pen
while the soldier lifts his sword

and the oldest of the family is moving with authority
coming from across the sea,
he challenges the son who puts him to the run
