And I've seen a fuller moon

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]

Em G
I'm running for my old playmates

I'm running with a gun

Verse III:

And the girls that you see
C
They're all faster than a train

You see the same girl

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]
