[Verse 1]
Eadd9 G#m7 I remember Richard Nixon back in seventy four Aadd9 C#m7 And the final scene at the White House door Eadd9 G#m7 And the staff lined up to say goodbye Aadd9 C#m7 Tiny tear in his shifty little eye A/D He said nobody knows me, Eadd9 C#m7 Nobody understands A/D These little people were good to me G#7sus4 G#7 F#7sus4 F#7 Oh I'm gonna shake some hands
[Chorus]
F#m11 B7 Somebody line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up F#m11 B7 Want you to line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up
[Verse 2]
Eadd9 G#m7 Ah at that time my heart was all broke Aadd9 C#m7 I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke Eadd9 G#m7 And I turned away from my loving kind Aadd9 C#m7 Tried to leave my body and live in my mind A/D But it's much too much emotion Eadd9 C#m7 To hold it in your hand A/D They've got waves out on the ocean G#7sus4 G#7 F#7sus4 F#7 They gonna wear away the land
[Chorus]
F#m11 B7 I say line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up F#m11 B7 Want you to line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up
[Bridge]
Em9 Em7 F#7#5 Bm7 A/B Bm7 Oh I've seen corn in Kansas C D/F# G D/F# G And I've seen picket fences G/F# Em7 F#7#5 Bm7 A/B Bm7 And certain cowboy dances C G/B C D/F# G D/F# G I've gone lining up for shows G/F# Em7 F#7#5 Bm7 A/B Bm7 I've been safely placed in rows C D/F# G D/F# G Sure I know how it goes
[Verse 3]
Eadd9 G#m7 Another day goes by, little time machine Aadd9 C#m7 I'm raking my brain over what it might mean Eadd9 G#m7 Just to claim the time and to turn away A A/B C#m7 Make today today A/D Eadd9 C#m7 Who waits for you, lonely tired old toad? A/D It's your life laid out before you G#7sus4 G#7 Like the broken white line F#7sus4 F#7 Down the center of the doggone road
[Chorus]
F#m11 B7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up F#m11 B7 Easy just to line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up
[Verse 4]
Eadd9 G#m7 Yeah, big moon landing Aadd9 C#m7 People all standing up Eadd9 G#m7 Smile for the loved ones A A/B C#m7 They go walking on down the aisles A/D Each re-engages Eadd9 C#m7 Stepping into the sun A/D I watch them turn like pages G#7sus4 G#7 F#7sus4 F#7 One by one by one
[Chorus]
F#m11 B7 Somebody line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up F#m11 B7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Line 'em up, line 'em all up
[Outro]
F#m11 B7 Want you to line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Easy just to line 'em all up, line 'em all up F#m11 B7 It works when you line 'em up, line 'em all up G#m7 C#7 Can't you just line 'em up, line 'em all up F#m11 B7 G#m7 C#7 (repeat fading)
