Intro: G Am Verse I:
    G 
The Kentucky pill

And I've seen a fuller moon

          C
Swinging wanton premonition
Pre-Chorus I:
       Am                   C                        G

[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

     Em             G
I'm running for my old playmates

I'm running through the town

     Em            G
I'm running with a gun

That's gonna shoot my playmates down

         G
Did you punch all those clocks?

         C

If you're playing on the swings

You can't be in the sand pit

         Am                            C                     G
