A5 E5 C5 G5 A5
So many years ago, many more than I'd even care to bear in my mind
E5 G5 D5
From the darkest of all places I found you
A5 E5 C5 G5 A5
All the limbs in their right places and a heart made of real gold
E5 G5 D5
Sell me your little doll, oh sir, I ask you kind
C5 E5 Dadd11 C5 E5 Dadd11 C5
Every night I returned to watch them- The master and the puppet in the show
E5 Dadd11 C5 E5 Dadd11 C5
He said "Oh no, I cannot sell him. Priceless he is, masterpiece of mine."
A5 E5 C5 G5
Please sell me your puppet, sir, name your price oh please!
A5 E5 G5 D5
Whatever you may ask, tenfold the price I pay
A5 E5 C5 G5
Did I not make it clear? This debate is over
A5 E5 G5 D5
I will never part from this puppet, my son
C5 E5 Dadd11 C5 E5 Dadd11 C5
With hungry eyes I followed them all night, the blind master and the puppet he had made
E5 Dadd11 C5 E5 Dadd11 C5
No, sir, to sell is not my will! The doll is mine, even if I have to kill
Bb5 D5 C5 Bb5 D5 C5 Bb5
So it shall be, if this is what it takes. Greed is truly blinder than me
D5 C5 Bb5 D5 C5 Bb5
Heart of gold is what you wish for? So this little boy wants to be a puppet, for real
..D5 C5 Bb.. D5 C5 G5
Bb5 D5 C5 F5 Bb5 D5 C5 G5
C5 Dadd11 D5
So I have the golden heart
C5 Dadd11 B5 D5
Now only needing the voice of the master
C5 G5 Dadd11 E5
Never feel hunger, never grow older
C5 D5 B5 A5
My dream was to be a star in a real puppet show
..E5 C5 G5 A5 E5 G5 D5

A5 A5 A5 D5 E5 E5 G5
It's so hard to remember my life.. The times before the show
G5 G5 C5 D5 D5 A5
Can I ever cut off the strings? "Take a bow, now dance and sing..." (Sing!)
A5 A5 D5 E5 E5 G5
Would you turn me to a child again? "No, never, I am your guide"
G5 G5 C5
You can see a small grin on the face
F5 D5 G5 E5
Of the master, when the puppet's in his place
A5 E5 G5
Be careful what you wish for, wishes might come alive
( G5 ) E5 A5
The twines are pulling me every day and night
( A5 ) E5 G5
The show, the glitter and all the fame, I'd give away for a life
( G5 )
Some things can end with a word, they say
E5 A5
This only ends with a sharp knife (Knife!)
