Chords for Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull): Moths 1978 (LP Heavy Horses)

_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ [Eb] Oh, the lighted window opened,
_ _ A tune [Cm] moved the dancing candle flame,
_ _ _ [Fm] And the first moths of summer,
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] Suicidal came, oh, [Cm] suicidal came,
And [Eb] the new breeze jetted,
_ _ _ In [Cm] it made by tenderness,
_ _ _ Sending warmth to the living [Bb]
sailing.
_ _ As [G] she turned again and [Eb] rested,
And the long night awakened,
_ _ _ [Cm] And we saw the powdered wings, _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] Circling our tomorrows,
_ _ In the [Gm] wearing of the spring,
[Eb] Chasing shadows living, _ _
_ In [D] the [Cm] magic lantern's light, _
_ _ _ [G] Creatures of [Bb] the candle, _
_ [Dm] _ [Gm] On the night's bright [Eb] bright,
And what they think we think,
_ _ Through [Cm] the golden people's eye,
_ _ _ _ [Eb] [Fm] In our haystack madness,
_ _ Butterflies living on a [Bb] spring tide,
Oh, on a [Cm] spring tide,
_ [G] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ [C] _ [Gm] _ _ Light [Dm] to love,
As the landing [C] set,
_ [D] As the candle [B] _ [Am] burners,
And as the moths [Em] were wet, _
And we'll all [C] burn together,
[F] With a quick [Dm] roast iron,
[E] For me, for the [A] candles we laid,
[Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [C] _ [Gb] Oh, the lighted window opened,
_ _ A tune [Ebm] moved the dancing candle flame,
_ _ And [Abm] the first moths of summer,
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] Suicidal game,
Oh, suicidal [Ebm] game,
[Gb] To join in the worship,
_ _ _ Of the [Ebm] life that never dies,
_ _ _ [Abm] In the moment's reflection,
_ _ Of [Ebm] two moths spinning [Db] in the right,
Right, right, right,
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
