JETHRO TULL - WIND UP
[Verse 1]
D Em7 D F# When I was young and they packed me off to school G D Asus4 Asus2 A And taught me how not to play the game D Em7 D F# I didn't mind if they groomed me for success G D Asus4 Asus2 A Or if they said that I was a fool
[Verse 2]
D Em7 So I left there in the morning D F# With their God tucked underneath my arm G D Asus4 Asus2 A A Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules D Em7 So I asked this God a question D F# And by way of firm reply, G D Asus4 Asus2 A He said - I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays
[Verse 3]
D Em7 D F# So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares): G D Asus4 Asus2 A Before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers D Em7 I don't believe you: D F# You had the whole damn thing all wrong G D Asus4 Asus2 A He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays
[Bridge]
G A D Bm Well, you can excommunicate me on my way to Sunday School G A Bm And have all the bishops harmonize these lines
[Riff]
F# A Bm x2

[Chorus]
Bm How do you dare tell me that I'm my Father's son G D F# When that was just an accident of birth Bm I'd rather look around me - compose a better song G D F# 'cos that's the honest measure of my worth G A D Bm In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me, G A Bm As you lick the boots of death born out of fear Bm When I was young and they packed me off to school G D F# And taught me how not to play the game, Bm I didn't mind if they groomed me for success, G D F# Or if they said that I was a fool Bm A So I left there in the morning D Bm With their God tucked underneath my arm G A Bm Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules
