Lick Your Fingers Clean Chords & Lyrics - 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

So p[C]lace your f[Bb]inal b[G]urden[F]
On your [Bb]hard-pressed [Eb]next of [F]kin
Send the c[Eb]hamber pot back [C]down the line
To [F]be filled [D]up ag[G]ain[C] [G]

Take your mind off [F]your [C]electi[Bb]on
And [G]try to[F] get it [C]straight[Bb]
And [G]don't [F]pretend [C]perfecti[Bb]on
You'll be [Eb]crucified too [F]late

Well, you'd [Eb]better lick your [C]fingers clean
I'll t[F]hank you [D]all for [G]that

And as you j[F]oin the [C]good ship e[Bb]arth
And you [G]mingle [F]with the [C]dust[Bb]
Be [G]sure to [F]leave your [C]underpants[Bb]
With [Eb]someone you can [F]trust

And the [Bb]hard-headed social worker
Who [Eb]bathes his [F]hands in [G]blood
Will [Bb]welcome [F]you with [Bb]arms held high
And [Eb]cover [F]you with [G]mud
