Sitting on a park bench eyeing little girls with bad intent
Snot running down his nose, greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes……Hey Aqualung
Drying in the cold sun watching as the frilly paintes run……Hey Aqualung
Feeling like a dead duck spitting out pieces of his broken luck……Hey Aqualung
Gm F C
Sun streaking cold on an old man wandering lonely
Cm Gm F
Taking time, the only way he knows
Leg hurting bad as he bends to pick a dog-end
He goes down to the bog and warms his feet
Feeling alone, the army’s up the road
Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea
Aqualung, my friend don’t you start away uneasy
You poor old sod, you see, it’s only me
Gm F Gm
Do you still remember December’s foggy freeze
F Gm
When the ice that clings on to your beard is screaming agony
Gm F C
And you snatch your rattling last breaths with deep-sea-diver sounds
Cm Gm F
And the flowers bloom like madness in the spring
Sun streaking cold on an old man wandering lonely
Taking time, the only way he knows
Leg hurting bad as he bends to pick a dog-end
He goes down to the bog and warms his feet
Feeling alone, the army’s up the road
Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea
Aqualung, my friend don’t you start away uneasy
You poor old sod, you see, it’s only me
Gm F C Cm Gm F
Gm F Gm F Gm F……Gm F

Oh……Aqualung

| I think it is about a bum who had children, but perhaps they died or left him and now he is all alone. I think he dies from pnemonia because having water in your lungs is a sign of it. Hence aqualung. And actually Jethro Tull was an inventor back in England in the early 19th century. | |
