[Verse 1]
D             Dsus4       D
Can I be your puppet on a string?
      D              Dsus4          D
Can I hang suspended wondering what stings?
       D               Dsus4
When I find out I will fight and I
     G/D                          D
Will climb until I swing from the vines
     Dsus4       D
Your puppet on a string
    D             Dsus4         D
And can I be your candle out at night?
      D              Dsus4           D
Can I throw away the shadows with my might?
         D               Dsus4         G/D             D
When you have to blow me out remain an imprint on your eyes
     Dsus4         D
Your candle out at night

[Chorus]
            Bm
Oh, could I love you like
A
Love you like
G             D
Love you like that?

[Verse 2]
D               Dsus4       D
Could you be my puppet on a string?
          D               Dsus4            D
Could you teach me how to dance and how to spin?
    D              Dsus4
And show me how to lead you
       G/D               D
When I don't know how to lead you
   Dsus4       D
My puppet on a string
    D               Dsus4         D
And could you be my candle out at night?
      D                 Dsus4             D
Can I watch you burning close and burning bright?
   D              Dsus4                 G/D       D
To remind me that touching still can be done at a distance
          Dsus4            D
Like your finger tied to a string tied to me

[Verse 3]
    D             Dsus4           D
And when a wallet comes a-falling down
   D           Dsus4              D
Or when a door unlocks to let you out
D            Dsus4                G/D              D
Can I be the strange unknown, the calmness that it sows?
    D                Dsus4               D
You feel in the very cool up through the ground
    D         Dsus4                  D
And when all, when all the lights go out
D               Dsus4           D
Could you be my summer blown in storm?
        D            Dsus4              G/D          D
At once far away and close and standing follicles on end
D          Dsus4          D
Tender and adrenaline and warm
D          Dsus4          D
Tender and adrenaline and warm

[Chorus]
             Bm
Oh could you love me like

Love me like

Love me like that?
             Bm
Oh could you love you like
A
Love me like
G
Love you like

Love me like
Bm
Love you like
A
Love me like
G             D
Love you like that?

    D             Dsus4       D
And can I be your puppet on a string?
