Here's a quick sketch of the acoustic bits of Wind-Up.  It seems to 
have only one place where Andersonianism occurs, so there's not much 
point in tabbing the whole shebang (at least, not from the acoustic 
guitar point of view).

Wind-Up 
------- 
Jethro Tull 
(Ian Anderson) 
(transcribed by Paul T, Edited and Additions by Christian Blanchard) 

Open, standard tuning (i.e. no capo!). 

Single notes are shown as S/F, where S is the string and F is the fret. 

The Andersonianism occurs on the last word of each (extended) line of 
the verse.  He comes off the D chord straight into an Asus4, with the 
pinky holding down the 2/3 suspended note, in front of the 3rd finger 
on the 2nd fret.  He strums down once, then lifts both the pinky and 
the 3rd finger off of the 2nd string and strums up, then replaces the 
3rd finger on the 2nd fret and strums down-up.  He then slides to his 
Em7 fingering, pinning the 3rd finger on 2/3 ready for the D chord, 
plays the little riff by lifting and placing the first finger.  The 
last note of the riff is the open 4th string - during this he sets up 
the D fingering and then down-strums it.
