Jethro Tull - Broadford Bazaar guitar tab
#
Broadford Bazaar
Ian Anderson
(transcription: Paul Tarvydas, tarvydas@tsctrl.guild.org)
Notes:
- Capo 7th fret
- tablature 0 is 7th fret
- chords w/o parentheses are the "normal" guitar chord positions
played relative to the capo (i.e. most convenient for guitarists)
- chords inside parentheses are the actual chords
- entirely flatpicked
- most chords are "washboard" strummed (just slowly enough that
distinct notes are heard)

Putting trust in blind corners as they overtake.

And it's "All come willing now,
C G
Spend a shilling now,
G C Em D
Stack up the back of your new motor-car."
G C G Em
There's home-dyed woolens, and wee plaster Cullins.
C D E Esus4 E
The day of the Broadford Bazaar.
Am G Em D Dsus2 D D5 D
Out of the north, no oil-rigs are drifting.
Am G Em D Dsus2 D D5 D
And jobs for the many are down to the few.
Am G C D
Blue-bottled choppers, they visit no longer.
G G/F C D
Like flies to the jampots, they were just passing through.
G D
And it's "All come willing now,
C G
Spend a shilling now,
G C Em D
Stack up the back of your new motor-car"
G C
Where once stood oil-rigs so phallic
G Em
There's only swear-words in Gaelic
C D E Esus4 E
To say at the Broadford bazaar.
Am G Em D Dsus2 D D5 D
All kinds of people come down for the opening.
Am G Em D Dsus2 D D5 D
Crofters and cotters, white-settlers galore.
Am G C D
And up on the hill, there's an old sheep that's dying,
G G/F C D
But it had two new lambs born just a fortnight before.
G D
And it's "All come willing now,
C G
Spend a shilling now,
G C Em D
Stack up the back of your new motor-car."
G C
They'll take pounds, francs and dollars from the well-heeled,
G Em
And stamps from the Green Shield.
C D E Esus4 E
The day of the Broadford Bazaar.
