Lick Your Fingers Clean chords by Jethro Tull

Verse:

N.C.
I'll see you at the weighing in

N.C.
When your life's sum-total's made

N.C.
And you set your wealth in godly deeds

N.C.
Against the sins you've laid


    C          Bb    G    F
So place your final burden

        Bb           Eb      F
On your hard-pressed next of kin

          Eb              C
Send the chamber pot back down the line

   F         D    G  C G
To be filled up again


                   F    C     Bb
Take your mind off your election

    G     F       C       Bb
And try to get it straight

    G     F       C       Bb
And don't pretend perfection

          Eb            F
You'll be crucified too late

Interlude:
*Flute* (Play like "hard-headed social worker" verse)
Bb Eb F G
Bb F Bb Eb F G

Verse:

          C         Bb           G        F
And he'll say "you really should make the deal"

       Bb      Eb      F
As he offers round the hat

            Eb               C
Well, you'd better lick your fingers clean

      F        D       G
I'll thank you all for that


            F       C          Bb
And as you join the good ship earth

        G      F        C   Bb
And you mingle with the dust

   G       F          C         Bb
Be sure to leave your underpants

     Eb              F
With someone you can trust


        Bb
And the hard-headed social worker

    Eb         F        G
Who bathes his hands in blood

     Bb      F        Bb
Will welcome you with arms held high

    Eb    F        G
And cover you with mud


          C        Bb            G        F
And he'll say "you really should make the deal"

       Bb      Eb      F
As he offers round the hat

            Eb               C N.C.
Well, you'd better lick your fingers clean

           F         D       G
Well, I'll thank you all for that
