Swingset Chain

V1  There's a playground that we used to run on the penny-drop that broke her arm
V2  If you want to know what that was like I'll tell you first, it was way too quiet
V3  There's a rooftop deck where we still hang out A couple of bars where we're not allowed

V1  The monkey bars that you fell from The swingset chain that stuck with my tongue
V2  It rained a hundred nineteen days of the year I spent my time falling down the stairs
V3  The roller-skates that threw you on your face the park on the hill which was our only space

V1  It's thirty below and we're far gone If you plant yourself here I wouldn't miss you for long
V2  I know I can't tie you to a leash But something tells me you'd go further than Greece
V3  The fog is fast and it rolls right in About the time I struck my first fifth of gin

V1  But then comes the day when you leave town I'm back to the way I was when you weren't around
V2  And then I'll have to figure out what to do I'm kind of afraid I'm co-dependent on you
V3  I really don't mean to complain too much But this is turning me into quite the lush

Chorus 1

Bm                                           A                           G
I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down Before momentum picked up
                        A      Bm                                                 A
Now all these doors are locked The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still
                          G                             A
If time was really racing by  You could see it when you drive

Bridge

Bm                           A                         G                   A
You're a dandelion seed That flies through the air And lands randomly Then disappears

Chorus 2

Bm                                         A              G                                A
I'm freaking out that we're running out of time But to do what? Should I stop and think of that?
Bm                                         A                       G                                  A  Bm
Is there something I could do to slow it   down? Live in a day for once Instead of watch it screaming by-ee
