[Intro]
Bbmaj7 Fmaj7 x2

[Verse 1]
Bbmaj7                    Fmaj7
         How did they teach you to be
Bbmaj7                      Fmaj7
Just a happy puppet dancing on a string
Bbmaj7          Fmaj7
How did you learn everything that
Bbmaj7                              Fmaj7
Comes along with slavish funnery?

[Chorus 1]
C                                      Dm
Tell me something if the world is so insane
Am7                    F
Is it making you sane again to...
C                  Dm
Let another man tug at the thread
         Am7                           F
That pulls up your nodding head?

[Verse 2]
Bbmaj7                      Fmaj7
          How did they teach you to be
Bbmaj7                     Fmaj7
Just a happy puppet dancing on a string
Bbmaj7             Fmaj7
How do you manage to live inside
Bbmaj7                            Fmaj7
This tiny stage you can't leave?

Tell me something if the world is so insane

Let another man tug at the thread
         Am7                          F
That pulls up your nodding head?

[Break]
    Bb                               F
A dullard strung on the wire
F                          Bb
When the master's gone, you hang there
 Bb                                    F
With your eyes and your limbs so lifeless

Bbmaj7              Fmaj7
How did they teach you to be
Bbmaj7              Fmaj7
Just a happy puppet dancing on a string

How do you manage to speak
Bbmaj7                       F
Your mouth a frozen grin?

[Ulangi Break]

[Chorus 2]
C                                     Dm
Tell me something if the world is so insane
Am7                    F
Is it making you sane again to...
C                 Dm
Let another man tug at the thread
         Am7                           F
That pulls up your empty wooden head?

          C                               Dm
Your hollowed head, your marble eyes
   Am7                                       F
Your wooden hands and your metal jawpins
C                 Dm
All wait in limbo for the man
          Am7                C                    F
Who knows how to move you this way
