[Bb]
[F] The people in the [Bb] line, they make me pretty mad sometimes.
[C] [F] Days when I've got a lot to [Bb] do, they do something so the line won't move.
[F] [Bb] But things being what [C] they are, chances are good that [Dm] there's a broken heart
standing [Eb] in front of me or right behind.
[Bb] And I know it's Jesus [Dm] who brings that to my [Eb] mind.
About the people in [F] the line,
[Bb]
[F] the people on the [Eb] road, in the traffic [Bb] everywhere I go.
[F] Cut in front or pass me way [Eb] too fast, I go crazy when [Bb] they drive like [F] that.
[Bb] But I wonder if it just [C] might be there's someone somewhere that [Dm] they need to reach.
They're driving [Bb] barely hanging on to hope.
So afraid to have more grace [Dm] for things that I don't know.
[Eb]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] People all around me that [Eb] I barely see.
[Dm] In need of mercy, [Eb] in need of peace.
[Bb] Struggling underneath a [F] heavy load.
[Ab] Jesus died for the people in [Eb] the line and the people on [F] the road.
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] The people in the pew, the ones [Bb] sitting next to me and you.
[F] Mom whose face is frozen [Cm] in a frown, her son sitting in [Bb] a cell downtown.
[F] [Bb] A man crying as we [C] sing the songs, a girl with needle tracks [Dm] all down her arms.
We've all got [Eb] something that we're going through.
[Bb] Surely we'd have [Dm] more love if we only [Eb] knew.
[Bb] About the people [F] in the pew,
[Dm] people all around me [Eb] that I tend to judge.
[Dm] Jesus only sees [Eb] that they need his love.
[Bb] And I hear him asking [F] what I'm gonna do [Ab] for the people [Eb] in the line, the people on the [Bb] road, and the people [F] in the pew.
