[Verse 1]
A                                          A/G
He was selling postcards from a paper stand

A                                      A/G
The whiskey bottle in his withered hand

A                                             A/G
Put his finger on a photo from an old magazine

A                                     D
Saw himself in the shadow of his dream

A                                                  A/G
They found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown

A                                            A/G
Told him his feet stank and took him downtown

A                                 A/G
Called him agitator, spy and thief

A                                   A/G
Shut him up in solitary third degree
[Chorus]
       D    E
Take a long line

       D    E
Take a long line

       D    E
Take a long line

E        A
Reel him in

A                                      A/G
He tried to appeal to the king of might

A                                        A/G
Said "I'm just exercising my sacred right"

A                                        A/G
The king he said "You ain't got no rights

A                                             A/G
You're a madman, a traitor, get outta my sight"

A                                                  A/G
They found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown

A                                            A/G
Told him his feet stank and took him downtown

A                                 A/G
Called him agitator, spy and thief

A                                   D
Shut him up in solitary third degree

A                                              A/G
Then they put him aboard a well wound whirlwind

A                                             A/G
Pulled out his teeth and they told him to grin

A                                                A/G
He gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wine

A                                                       A/G
And said "I never existed, you've been wasting your time"

Take a long line

Take a long line

       D                    E
Take a long, long long long line

E        A
Reel him in
