Intro: G   Am


Verse I:
    G 
The Kentucky pill 
       C
And a cow tipping expedition
      G
And I've seen a fuller moon
          C
Swinging wanton premonition


Pre-Chorus I:

       Am                   C                        G
Did ya ever expect to have more fame than this or that?

[for the violin part just pick G ]

              Am                    C                G
Cause there's believing and there's taking off your hat

[violin part: G ]

              Am                 C                 G
And there's reading and there's reading this or that

[violin part: G - Am ]



Chorus I:

     Em             G
I'm running for my old playmates
    Em                 G
I'm running through the town
     Em            G
I'm running with a gun
             Em                 G
That's gonna shoot my playmates down


pick Intro again: G - Am


Verse II:

         G
Did you punch all those clocks?
         C
Did you seal up those time bandits?
           G
If you're playing on the swings
           C
You can't be in the sand pit



Pre-Chorus II:


     Am                 C                  G
I lied to you when you wore those other clothes

[ pick G ]

       Am                 C                         G
I was into your thinking: where can I get one of those?

[ pick G ] 

         Am                            C                     G
I woulda picked your brains I would've paid you through the nose

[ G - Am ]


Chorus II:

     Em             G
I'm running for my old playmates
    Em                 G
I'm running through the town
     Em            G
I'm running with a gun
             Em                 G
That's gonna shoot my playmates down

Oh I'm running
     G9
Oh oh oh

[ pick G - Am ]



Verse III: 

         G
And the girls that you see
             C
They're all faster than a train
     G
You see the same girl
          C
But you won't see that face again



Pre-Chorus III:

          Am             C                  G
Left the changes down to fate and happenstance

[pick G ]
          Am                C              G
Picked a viewpoint oh and how my girl can dance

[ pick G ]
          Am          C                         G
Followed empty, realized she was watering the plants

[pick G - Am ]


Chorus III: 

       Em           G 
I'm running for my old playmates
      Em                 G
I'm running through the town
      Em           G
I'm running with a gun
              Em                 G
That's gonna shoot my playmates down
