[Verse] (play intro riff)

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

Chorus

Gm F C

Sun streaking cold on an old man wandering lonely

Cm Gm F

Taking time, the only way he knows

[Verse] (play intro riff)

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

Chorus

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

[Verse] (play intro riff)

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
