[Intro]
A5
(This is it folks, over the top)

[Verse 1]
       A5
He was selling postcards from a paper stand
Whiskey bottle in his withered hand
He put a finger on a photo from an old magazine
                                          D5
And saw himself in the shadow of his dream
A5
They found him with his head inside a tinpot crown
Told him his feet stank and took him downtown
Called him agitator, spy and thief
Shut him up in solitary third degree
       D    E
Take a long line

[Chorus]
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
           A5
Reel him in

[Verse 2]
   A5
He tried to appeal to the king of might
Said "I'm just exercising my sacred right"
The king he said "You ain't got no rights
You're a madman, a traitor,
get outta my sight"
       D    E
Take a long line

[Chorus]
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
         A
Reel him in

[Verse 3]
A5
They found him with his head inside a tinpot crown
Told him his feet stank and took him downtown
Called him agitator, spy and thief
Shut him up in solitary third degree
D5   A5
They put him aboard a well wound whirlwind
Pulled out his teeth and told him to grin
He gave them a smile,
pulled out a bottle of wine
And said "I never existed,
you've been wasting your time"
       D    E
Take a long line

[Chorus]
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
           A
Reel him in
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
           A
Reel him in
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
       D    E
Take a long line
Reel him in

[Outro]
A
