Chorus 1:

Gm            F                          C
Sun streaking cold, an old man wondering lonely
Cm              Gm          F
Taking time the only way he knows

Gm          F                          C
Leg hurting bad, as he bends to pick a dog end
Cm                  Gm                F
He goes down to the bog and warms his feet

Gm       F                       C
Feeling alone, the armies up the road
Cm              Gm               F
Salvation a-la-mode and a cup of tea

Gm          F                              C
Aqualung my friend, don't you start away uneasy
Cm                   Gm            F
You poor old sod you see it's only me


Faster:

Gm             F                       Gm
Do you still remember, Decembers foggy freeze?
Gm                          F                               Gm
When the ice that clings on to your beard, was screaming agony
        Gm                   F                                 C
And you snatch your rattling last breathes with deep-sea-diver-sounds
        Cm                   Gm             F
And the flowers bloomed like madness in the spring

Gm            F                          C
Sun streaking cold, an old man wondering lonely
Cm              Gm          F
Taking time the only way he knows

Gm          F                          C
Leg hurting bad, as he bends to pick a dog end
Cm                  Gm                F
He goes down to the bog and warms his feet

Gm       F                       C
Feeling alone, the armies up the road
Cm             Gm                F
Salvation a-la-mode and a cup of tea

Gm          F                              C
Aqualung my friend, don't you start away uneasy
Cm                   Gm            F
You poor old sod you see it's only me
