 From the album 
Copyright 1971
Music by Ian Anderson
Lyrics by Jennie Anderson

Comments to Paulo E. Tuasca 

Note: You'll need a CAPO on 3rd fret to play the accoustic parts of the
song. The CAPO is not used by Martin Barre, BUT if you want to play this
song alone (I guess some of you will!), you can easyly figure out that
this is possible, even in the solo (remember to play the first few notes
on the B string, then).

I tryed to contact the previous persons who made efforts and contributions
to this song, but got an error from their mail servers... Let me know what
you thing you guys!!!

Intro:

Some of these notes are power chords, but I'll leave this up to you :)

Tablature Explanation:
NT   = Nashville Tuning is when the low E, A, D & G strings are replaced
with
        lighter gauge strings and tuned one octave higher than normal.
|    = bar separating measures
~    = vibrato
x    = percussive note with no pitch; muted note
.    = staccato; mute the note immediately after striking it
h    = hammer
p    = pull
s    = slide (used when \ or / don't fit)
^    = bend string up to indicated pitch/fret shown in parenthesis ()
r    = release bend (string/fret may be indicated)
t    = fret board tap (not many of these with Rush)
/    = slide up
\    = slide down
x/   = pick slide up
x\   = pick slide down
<5>  = natural harmonic (lightly touch the string at fret indicated)
[5]  = artificial harmonic (use thumb to follow through the pick attack)
(5)  = note sustained from previous measure
o    =\ repeat sign
o    =/
DC   = "Da capo" - means "from the head", when you see these initials
         you go back to the beginning of the piece of music.
DS   = "Dal segno" - means "from the sign", go back in the tabulature
         only as far as the (%) sign.
Coda = A passage at the end of a movement or composition that brings
        it to a formal close.
Al
Coda = means "to the tail", tells you that you must go to the end
           section which starts with the Coda sign (+).
RF   = repeat and fade
rit  = "ritardando" - Gradually slowing in tempo; retarding.

Tablature Format:

This Tablature is based on the format indicated below.

   1   2   3   4     1   2   3   4     <--Quarter note beat locations
   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8   <--Eighth note beat locations
                                       <--Effects/Misc Line
   D                 C     G/B         <--Chord Line
   e e e q   q   e   e e e q   e e e   <--Note Duration Line (table below)
|-----2-----------|-----------------| <--High E string
|-------3---------|-----------------| <--B string
|---2-------2---0-|-----0-------0---| <--G string
|-0---------------|---2-------0---0-| <--D string
|-----------------|-3-----2---------| <--A string
|-----------------|-----------------| <--E string

Effects/Misc Line:  Provides effects information, number of repeats, etc.

Chord Line:  Provides the chord name for the chords used in the
              tab below.

Note Duration Line:  Provides the "value" of each note, e.g., whole,
                      half, quarter, etc.

Note Duration Designator Table:
   w = Whole note                   h = Half note
   q = Quarter note                 H = Dotted half note
   Q = Dotted Quarter note          s = Sixteenth note
   e = Eighth note                  S = Dotted sixteenth note
   E = Dotted eighth note           + = Duration exceeds 2 measures
   t = Thirty-second note
   T = Dotted thirty-second note

   Notes with two designations immediately adjacent to each other
   have durations added (e.g., he = half note + eigth note, etc.)

String lines:  Represent the strings of a guitar.  The tab is laid
                out as if you placed a right handed guitar on your
                lap, string side up.  A vertical line character "|"
                represents a bar between measures.  A dash "-" represents
                each string.  The numbers indicate which fret should
                be fingered to sound the note.  The first space after
                every bar is a blank space that is almost never used.
                Quarter notes are separated by 3 dashes, eighth notes
                are separated by 1 dash.  In an effort to make the
                ASCII tab look as much like tab in a music book, the
                notes are spaced out as accurately as possible.  In the
                event the notes will not fit into the format shown above,
                the tab will be expanded (usually only required for
                solos).
