Jethro Tull – Protect And Survive (Guitar)

 Am       G                  F
They said protect and you’ll survive-

C        Am             Bb
(but our postman didn’t call)

Bb        C             Dm             F               E
8 lbs. of over-pressure wave seemed to glue him to the wall

F         G                  Am
They said protect and you’ll survive

 Am       G         F
E.M.P. took out the radio

C        Am              Bb
(and our milk-man didn’t call)

Bb            C             Dm             F               E
Flash blinded by the pretty lights, didn’t see his bottles fall

F         G                  Am    G
Or feel the warm black rain arrive

 Am          G                   F
Big friendly cloud builds in the West

C        Am               Bb
(and our dust-men haven’t called)

Bb        C           Dm          F                E
They left a dual carriageway at a hundred miles an hour-

F         G              Am     G*
A tail wind chasing them away

A           F#m           E          F#m
And in deep shelters lurk below, sub-regional control

          E               A
Who sympathise but cannot help

   A         G            C
To mend your body or your soul

Am             Bm               Em        F   Bb         G
Self-appointed guardians of the race with egg upon their face

C           D               G                  A           B
When steady sirens sing all-clear they pop up, find nobody here

Am       G                  F
And so I watch two new suns spin

C        Am             Bb
(our paper man doesn’t call)

Bb        C             Dm             F               E
Burnt shadow printed on the road now there’s nothing there at all

F           G                   Am
They said: "Protect and you’ll survive"

Em Dm Bb F A
