I play this with my guitar detuned exactly 1 semi-tone on each string.
But, I can't decide if he plays it E or Eb.
It's probably ok in E.
So, basically it's just Am, Em, F and a bit of G.
Verse1:
Am Em F Em
I was still a child when you caught me, and tied me to your bed
Am Em F Em
You gave me shoes and pretty clothes, and I gave you what I had between my legs
Am Em F Em
It was just a right of pass-ee-age, you held me down and said
Am Em F Em
"Gonna be your right of pass-ee-age, so boy you better spread, spread 'em"

Chorus:
Am Em F
Run run run, as fast as you can, but you can't run, run from the
G
Childcatcher's hands
Am Em F G
Run run run, as fast as you can, but you can't and then you can't.
Verse2:
Am Em
And I wrote your name in my shit across the town,
F Em
to warn the kids of your bloodshed
Am Em
And I chased you with a burning cross,
F Em
and my mother, she wanted you dead.
Chorus:
Am Em F
Run run run, as fast as you can, but you can't run, run from the
G
Childcatcher's hands (REPEAT)
Strange bit at the end:
E------------------------|
B------------------------| (REPEAT)
G-----2------------------| ie. play the first strings of Am Em F G,
D----2-----2----3----5---| in progression
A---0-----2----3----5----|
E--------0----1----3-----|
I've got no time, for victims,
I didn;t think it was all that bad,
and if you can't run to save yourself,
then you deserve to be had,
this is the age of constipation
this is the age of martyrdom.
Oh, I think you even enjoyed it, I think I even saw you cum.
