Strings

Tom: Bm

Em7
Why do I feel like your puppet?
F#m7                 Bm7
You pull my strings while you play me
Em7
Why do I move with your movement?
F#m7    Bm7
Up on your stage I'm performing
Em7
Left you but I'm back here on your sofa
F#m7                               Bm7
Thought I needed space I want you closer
Em7
So why do I move with your movement
F#m7               F#7
Under your strings like a puppet?


[Verse 1]
Em7
I'm too up front to turn my back on this
                       F#m7                             Bm7
Swear you did a number on me like some raffle tickets
                          Em7
Lucky you, you stuck with me might as well tattoo this ****
                            F#m7                              N.C.
Be like that sometimes, you show up I be acting different (Different)


[Pre-Chorus]
           Em7
Maybe I'm crazy, but if I lose you
            F#m7                   Bm7
Oh, I don't know if I'll survive
              Em7
You drive me crazy for your amusement
         F#m7                      Bm7
And I'm along-long for the ride
         Em7
Got me talking to myself, saying to myself, "Oh no"
F#m7                             Bm7
Sweet nightmare not a beautiful dream
Em7
Should move it to the left, move it to the left
      F#m7                F#7
Oh I, know I know better, know I know better


[Chorus]
   Em7
So why do I feel like your puppet?
F#m7                 Bm7
You pull my strings while you play me
Em7
Why do I move with your movement?
F#m7    Bm7
Up on your stage I'm performing
Em7
Left you but I'm back here on your sofa
F#m7                               Bm7
Thought I needed space I want you closer
Em7
So why do I move with your movement
F#m7               F#7              Em
Under your strings like a puppet?

[Verse 2]

I don't mind the strings attached, big facts, no printer
             F#m7                                   N.C.
Why you over there looking like a snack and I'm the whole dinner?
Bm7                          Em7
Sweet like stevia, no wonder Stevie isn't superstitious
                                 N.C.
I don't see no competition that's a Bird Box
            F#m7                                       F#7
You're the ribbon in my sky, trippin' playing chicken, hit me like a head on collision


[Pre-Chorus]
           Em7
Maybe I'm crazy, but if I lose you
            F#m7                   Bm7
Oh, I don't know if I'll survive
              Em7
You drive me crazy for your amusement
         F#m7                      Bm7
And I'm along-long for the ride
         Em7
Got me talking to myself, saying to myself, "Oh no"
F#m7                             Bm7
Sweet nightmare not a beautiful dream
Em7
Should move it to the left, move it to the left
      F#m7                F#7
Oh I, know I know better, know I know better


[Chorus]
   Em7
So why do I feel like your puppet?
F#m7                 Bm7
You pull my strings while you play me
Em7
Why do I move with your movement?
F#m7    Bm7
Up on your stage I'm performing
Em7
Left you but I'm back here on your sofa
F#m7                               Bm7

Em7
So why do I move with your movement
F#m7               F#7
Under your strings like a puppet?

And I'm along for the ride
