Bm                                     Bm/A
"You're so free," that's what everybody's telling me
                       G               A             Bm
Yet I feel I'm like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee
Bm                                     Bm/A
Something's wrong, got a feeling that I don't belong
                       G               A             Bm
As if I had come from outer space, out of place, like King Kong


CHORUS
Gm                Gm/C#
I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
Gm                Gm/C#
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as I sing
Fm                Fm/B
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round
Fm                Fm/B                          G
I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette, just a silly old clown


VERSE
Bm                                     Bm/A
Like a doll, like a puppet with no will at all
                       G               A             Bm
And somebody told me how to talk, how to walk, how to fall
Bm                                     Bm/A
Can't complain, I've got no-one but myself to blame
                       G               A             Bm
Something's happening I can't control, lost my hold, is it safe?


CHORUS
Gm                Gm/C#
I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
Gm                Gm/C#
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as I sing
Fm                Fm/B
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round
Fm                Fm/B                          G
I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette, just a silly old clown

"Look this way, just a little smile," is what they say

"You look better on the photograph if you laugh, that's okay"
