[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]

Take a long line

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

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

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