"Get Back In Line"
Motorhead (“The World is Yours,” 2010)
Pretty simple tune, once you get the power chords down. The main issue is speed. Get the speed and
the rhythm, and you're rockin'. Lemmy and the boys play it half a step down, but I tabbed it at
standard tuning.
At interludes, slip a little solo in there to spice it up a bit, either in G# or F (G# sounds better).
Rock a solo in F (Key is G#). Listen to the song for the strum pattern, and get as much distortion
as possible.
Rock on my friends!
INTRO:
F# C#
F#We live on borrowed time, hoEpe turned to dust,
BNothing is forgEiven we figF#ht for every crust.
F#The way we are is not the way we usEed to be my friend,
BAll things come to he Ewho waits, the waiting F#never ends.
B G# F#
CHORUS:
G#We are the chosen few; wD#e are the frozen crew,
C#We don't know whF#at to do, jusG#t wasting time.
G#We don't know when to quit, we dD#on't have room to spit,
C#But we'll get ovF#er itG#, get back in line.
F# C#
F#Stuck here ten thousand years, dEon't know how to act,
BEverything foErgotten, speF#cially the facts.
F#The way we live is running scared; I Edon't like it much,
BAll things come to hEe who waits F#but these days most things suck.
B F#
CHORUS:
G#We are the chosen ones, weD# don't know right from wrong,
C#We don't know what's goingF# on, don't knG#ow enough to care.
G#We are the dogs of war; D#don't even know what for,
C#But we obey thF#e law, get back inG# line.
BRIDGE:
C#SOLC#O (C#IN F)
F# C#
F#We are trapped in luxury, stEarving on parole,
BNo one told us wEho to love, weF# have sold our souls.
F#Why do we vote for faceless dogs? WeE always take the bait.
BAll things come Eto he who waits, F#but all things come too late.
B F#
CHORUS:
G#We are the sacrifice, aD#nd we don't like advice,
C#We always payF# the price, pG#earls before swine.
G#Now we are only slaves, D#already in our graves,
C#And if you thinkF# that Jesus saves,G# get back in line.
C#If you think thaF#t Jesus saves, gG#et back in line.
