          THE LONGEST LINE
            THE POSIES

INTRO:
NONE

VERSE
      FF     G minorGm      FF    G minorGm
I`ve spent half of my life in this godawful place
    FF      G minorGm     DmDm  DmDm
And I dare say I`ve only grown older
     FF     G minorGm   FF      G minorGm
I`ve had all I can take of patience and kindness
     FF      G minorGm    DmDm  DmDm
I can`t wait in this line any longer

   A#A#          DmDm C majorC
But this is the way that I am, so

VERSE:
FF          G+G
If you choose me, please abuse me
 FF       G+G
Never mind the mileage
      FF      G+G
There`s no harming me intrinsically
   FF       G+G
And every sign of wear and tear
  G minorGm          A#A#
Is lost in autumn foliage
 A#A#        FF   G+G FF G+G
Well aren`t you impressed


VERSE:
 FF        G+G
Now I`m stating endless waiting
FF        G+G
Is my favorite pastime
     FF       G+G
There`s nothing new for me to do
  FF       G+G
And so I have to wonder
      G minorGm     A#A#
Will there ever be a last time
         FF  G+G FF G+G A minorAm
`Cause I need a rest

CHORUS:
 A minorAm       A#A#    A minorAm
Standing in the longest li-ine
 A minorAm       A#A#
Waiting for my turn
A minorAm        A#A#       C majorC
 I wonder if my turn will ever come

  A#A#    FF

VERSE:
 FF         G+G
Chronic starts and perfect martyr
 FF      G+G
Never need a reason
    FF         G+G
Oh I guess that I could hibernate
  FF       G+G
Or move away to a warmer place
   G minorGm          A#A#
Only for a change of season
 A#A#        FF G+G FF G+G A minorAm
When will my sun shine


CHORUS:
 A minorAm       A#A#    A minorAm
Standing in the longest li-ine
 A minorAm       A#A#
Waiting for my turn
A minorAm        A#A#       C majorC
 I wonder if my turn will ever come

  A#A#    FF

BREAK:
G# minorG#m            C# minorC#m
Now please don`t show me spring time flowers
G# minorG#m             C# minorC#m
 It`d be more than I could take
G# minorG#m             C# minorC#m
 After living through the clouds and showers
G# minorG#m         C#C#  FF
 Oh, I can hardly waaaaaaait

CHORUS:
A minorAm         A#A#    A minorAm
 Standing in the longest li-ine
 A minorAm       A#A#
Waiting for my turn
A minorAm        A#A#       C majorC  D MajorD
 I wonder if my turn will ever come


VERSE:
         G+G      A minorAm      G+G    A minorAm
If you`ve spent half of your life in this godawful place
      G+G        A minorAm     E minorEm
You will swear that you`ve only grown older
C majorC       G+G      A minorAm    G+G      A minorAm
If you treat everyone you know with patience and kindness
     G+G      A minorAm      E minorEm  E minorEm
You will not know yourself for much longer


OUTRO:
    D MajorD           E minorEm
Well, this is what I have become
 D MajorD       G+G  A minorAm G+G
Standing in my line
 A minorAm   G+G  A minorAm G+G
Longest line
 A minorAm    G+G  A minorAm G+G
Longest line
 A minorAm   G+G  A minorAm G+G
Longest line
 A minorAm    G+G  A minorAm G+G
