Flying Dutchman Jethro Tull
Em D repeatedly
[Em]Old lady with a b[D]arrow; l[Cmaj7]ife near [D]ending
[Em]Standing by the h[D]arbour wall;[Cmaj7] warm wishes s[D]ending
ch[Am]ildren on the c[D]old sea swell ---
n[F]ot f[G]ishers of m[D]en ---
g[Am]one to ch[D]ase away the l[G]ast h[Em]erring:
c[Am]ome [G]empty home ag[D]ain.
S[F]o come all you lovers of the g[G]ood life
[F]on your s[G]upermarket r[D]un ---
S[F]et a sail of your [G]own devising
[C]and be there wh[G]en the Dutchman c[D]omes,
you'd bett[Am]er be there wh[G]en the Dutchman c[D]omes.[B]
Em D...
[Em]Wee girl in a str[D]aw hat: [Cmaj7]from far east w[D]arring
[Em]Sad cargo of an o[D]ld ship: you[Cmaj7]ng bodies whor[D]ing
Sl[Am]ow ocean h[D]obo ---
p[F]orts cl[G]osed to her cr[D]ew
N[Am]o hope [D]of immigr[G]at[Em]ion ---
k[Am]eep on p[G]assing thr[D]ough.
S[F]o come all you lovers of the g[G]ood life
y[F]our children pl[G]aying in the s[D]un ---
S[F]et a sympathetic f[G]lag a-flying
[C]and be there wh[G]en the Dutchman c[D]omes,
you'd bett[Am]er be there wh[G]en the Dutchman c[D]omes.[B]
Instrumental:
Am Em D x4
D C D x5 (?)
[Em]Death grinning like a sc[D]arecrow [Cmaj7]--- Flying Dutc[D]hman
[Em]Seagull pilots flown from n[D]owhere --[Cmaj7]- try and touc[D]h one
as[Am] she slips in on the [D]full tide
a[F]nd the [G]harbour-master[D] yells
All[Am] hands [D]vanished with the c[G]ap[Em]tain ---
n[Am]o one le[G]ft, the ta[D]le to tell.
S[F]o come all you lovers of the g[G]ood life
L[F]ook around you, c[G]an you s[D]ee?
S[F]taring ghostly in the m[G]irror ---
[C]it's the D[G]utchman you will b[D]e
.[Am].floating sl[G]owly out to s[D]ea
[C]in a misty misery.
Em D repeatedly
