Subject: Aqualung (Jethro Tull) SUGGESTIONS
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jethro_tull/aqualung_tab.html ]
Ok, well the beginning riff and rythm of Aqalung is fairly easy to
figure out, and the acoustic part in the middle isn't really hard
either, but the solo is a bit difficult, I got the first few bars down
to what I think is right, but I'm going to post all of what I know,
and since just about every guitarist in the world knows this song, I
would appreciate it if you would post your versions of parts to the
song if they are different than the ones here, especially the solo.
So, this isn't really a request for the song I just want to know how
other people play it.
Opening riff:
"Sitting on the park bench..."
e:----------------------------|
B:----------------------------|
G:----------------------------|
D:----------------------------|
A:--5--------3--4~--3---------|
E:-----3--6-------------------|
Verse rythm section: (play 3 string power chords)
"Eyeing little girls with bad intent..."
Db Db Db Eb Eb Eb F F F Eb F Eb F Gb Db
"Hey, Aqalung"
Eb Eb Eb Db Gb Gb E B D
I'm pretty sure everyone can do without tab here
Acoustic Part (Slow):
"Sun streaking cold, an old man..."
Gm Gm F F F F C C Cm Cm Gm Gm F F F F
Here occasionally hammer the 2nd and 3rd frets on the G string
while playing the F chords.
Acoustic Part (Faster):
"I still remember..."
Gm F F F F Gm Gm Gm
"Taking time the only time he knows..."
Gm Gm F F F F Cm Cm Gm Gm F F F F
And here is 1st part of the solo:
e:-------------------------------------------------------
B:-------------------------------------------------------
G:------10/12--14~----10\9-------------------------------
D:--10----------------------10------------------3-5--5/7-
A:------------------------------12\3--3----3h5-----------
E:-------------------------------------------------------
