  • If rock n' roll existed in medieval times it would sound like ‪@officialjethrotull‬! This is the first Tull song I fell in love with, and I remember having my mind blown by how much I enjoyed a flute solo. Ian Anderson did such a cool and unique thing with this band. It's still one of my top five favorites to play at shows. Hope y'all dig my rendition!

    Lyrics:
    In the shuffling madness
    Of the locomotive breath
    Runs the all-time loser
    Headlong to his death
    Oh, he feels the piston scraping
    Steam breaking on his brow
    Old Charlie stole the handle
    And the train it won't stop
    Oh no way to slow down
    He sees his children jumping off
    At the stations one by one
    His woman and his best friend
    In bed and having fun
    Oh, he's crawling down the corridor
    On his hands and knees
    Old Charlie stole the handle
    And the train it won't stop going
    No way to slow down
    Hey
    He hears the silence howling
    Catches angels as they fall
    And the all-time winner
    Has got him by the balls
    Oh, he picks up Gideons bible
    Open at page one
    I think God he stole the handle
    And the train it won't stop going
    No way to slow down
    No way to slow down
    No way to slow down
    No way to slow down

I'm an old singer influenced by traditional American music (Folk, Gospel, Country, Blues etc.) like all those born in the sixties in Europe and I'm happy to see that all this is not dead in the hearts of many people. I'm a fan... God be with you.

    Adam - loved your rendition of Locomotive Breath; especially the intro. Grew up in that 70's, and Aqualung was one of my most listened to albums. And Locomotive Breath one of my most listened to songs off the album. Now at age 60, I've decided to learn the guitar ... not sure why. LOL Would love it if you shared your intro. Would like to try learning it. Thanks.

    • @AdamPearceMusic
      @AdamPearceMusic  Рік тому

      That's awesome that you're learning. It's one of the most rewarding endeavors you could do and of course it's never too late to learn. Unfortunately, I don't know when I'd have the time to tab that out. I get request for that all the time.
