E|E|----------------------------------------------------|| | Boy On A String | | by: Jars Of Clay | | CD: Jars Of Clay | | copyright: Brentwood Music | E|E|----------------------------------------------------|| INTRO: Am C G (x5) VERSE 1: Am C G The marionette has your number Am C G It pullin your arms and legs till you can't stand on your own Am C G Dragging your conscience on the stage and you heart gets rearranged Am C G And you cannot tell your mentor from your maker Am C G Look at the crowds bleeding with laughter Am C G Over the way you entertain at beckon call Am C G They don't see behind the lights or the painted background Am C G They just like to see you fall CHORUS: C Am C G But you don't really mind C Am C G Cause you're just wasting time C Am C G You can't feel anything C Am C G Just a boy on a string VERSE 2: Am C G I feel a sadness like Gapetto Am C G Watching the life that he created run away, Am C G Seeing the puppeteer's intrusion and holding the remains Am C G Of puppets that had rotted away Am C G One day the curtain will not open Am C G And all of the crowds will go away Am C G Someday those strings will choke you Am C G But until that day
