Puppet Man

[Verse]
Em
There’s a puppet man with strings of steel
D
Hidden in his room
Am                                    Em
When he shines his light on me, I run deeper into the gloom
 
Em
He’s got search light eyes and needle teeth
D
and claws to make you bleed
Am
He’ll make you dance like a ragged doll to
Em
satisfy his needs
 
Em                                       D
And then one day I broke the strings and ran off to be free
Am
And now that puppet man has sent his
Em
puppets after me
 
 
[Chorus]
G                         Em
Was I spose to hide away, was I spose to run
D                                Em
Was I spose to face the truth and kneel before
                     D
the barrel of a gun, tell me which one
           Em
PUPPET MAN!
 
 
[Verse]
Em                          D
There’s a wolf upon my tail howling to the moon
Am                                      Em
So hurry quick that pack of wolves will be upon us soon
 
Em                                    D
There’s a fire rising in the east and shadows in the west
Am                                   Em
On either side they’ll take away the things that I love best
 
 
[Chorus]
G                         Em
Was I spose to hide away, was I spose to run
D                                 Em
Was I spose to face the truth and kneel before
                    D
the barrel of a gun tell me which one
          Em
PUPPET MAN!
 
 
Em                                 D
Don’t know what I’m spose to be or what I’m spose to say
Am                                        Em
I don’t know if you’ll close the door and send me on my way
 
Em                                    D
Don’t know if you’ll trade your pride for the courage that you lack
Am                                     Em
But heres the thing I know for sure I’m never turning back
 
 
[Chorus]
G                         Em
Was I spose to hide away, was I spose to run
D                                 Em
Was I spose to face the truth and kneel before
                    D
the barrel of a gun tell me which one
          Em
PUPPET MAN!
G                         Em
Was I spose to hide away, was I spose to run
D                                 Em
Was I spose to face the truth and kneel before
                    D
the barrel of a gun tell me which one
          Em
PUPPET MAN!
