Capo 3rd fret


[Pre-Verse]
E
We were at the swing set
E
“Now?” I asked, “not yet” you said


[Verse 1]
E                             A
Turnin’ round and round in my seat
E                   A
Chains chiming over my head
E                      A
When the tension is complete
E                       A
And there is no way out of it


[Chorus 1]
Fm A     Fm A
Now, not yet
Fm A     Fm A
Now, not yet


[Verse 2]
E                     A
Over the rise, on the lawn
E                A
Someone draggin’ someone
E                       A
A kid lookin’ me in the eye
E                      A
Teacher not lookin’ at anyone


[Chorus 2]
Fm A     Fm A
Now, now yes
Fm A     Fm A
Now, now yes


[Interlude]
E  A  Fm


[Verse 3]
E                       A
I looked behind me only once 
E                    A
Didn’t see nobody chasin’ us
E                            A
Just my swing dancin’ in the sun
E                    A
Dancin’ wildly where it was


[Chorus 3]
Fm A     Fm A
Now, now yes
Fm A     Fm A
Now, now yes
Fm A     Fm A
     Now yes
Fm A     Fm A
     Now yes
Fm A     Fm A
     Now yes
Fm A     Fm A  E
     Now yes
