Verse 1:
D5
  At the sound of the bell
                     G5
you will fall fast asleep
Let the sound of my voice
                 B5
help you never repeat
All the things that you've 
done all the people 
       A5
you've harmed
Just surrender sweet
sweetness surrender
D5
  When the curtains go crash
                       G5
and the knees start to bend
When the filaments burst 
                        B5
and there's no light to lead
You to anywhere useful 
you're severed there
A5
All skin on skin left 
severed and sucking the wind


Chorus:
B5 F#5  G5
   Marionettes
         B5
How they dangle on 
 F#5
strings yet 
     G5        D5
they never forget
B5        F#5     G5
  I can't take anymore 
            B5
I'm over it now
  F#5
I can't take 
   A5
anymore Anymore


Verse 2:
D5
  At the camera's collapse 
                       G5
you will feign deep respect
Let the flash of your past
                  B5
help you never forget
All the things that you're not
                   A5
All the people you failed 
to remember or return to sender
D5
  When there's nowhere but 
G5                             B5
black and the sharks creeping in
When you're weathered and 
A5                        D5
torn from the weakest of things
                    G5
Like the loose-leaf parade 
                B5
or the rain on electrical wires
      A5
Such electrical lives that we
G5      A5
lead I promise that I'll 
F#5   G(hold)
never leave you alone


(Repeat chorus)


Bridge:
B5             A5
  Never tasted better 
     B5           G5
when you tried to let go
B5             A5
  Never tasted better 
     B5           G5
when you tried to let go
B5             A5
  Never tasted better 
     B5           G5
when you tried to let go
B5             A5
  Never tasted better 
     B5           G5
when you tried to let
tried to let go


Interlude: G--A--F#m--G-- x2


Verse 3:
D5
Never tasted better 
                      D(hold)
when you tried to let go


(Repeat Chorus)


Outro:
B5 F#5  G5
   Marionettes
           B5
dangle on strings

F#5  G5
Marionettes 
           B5
dangle on strings
F#5  A5
Marionettes
