Verse:
Bm            A                   G                   A
People are puppets, held together with string.
Bm            A             G                A
There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him,
Bm         A               G              A          Bm      A      G       A
as he asked me to pray to the god he doesn't believe in.

Chorus 1:
Bm            A               G             A
Time and again boys race to be men:
Bm                    A       G          A
impatient they start, fearful at end.
Bm                    A       G              A
But here was a man mourning tomorrow.
Bm                   A            G           A
He drank, but finally drowned in his sorrow.
Bm         A      G                   A
He could not break surface tension.
Bm                     A         G               A
He looked in the wrong place for redemption.
Bm  A  G              A              Bm
Don't look at me with those eyes;
A   G         A      Bm
I tried to anaethetize:
A                     G             Em
turn back the time that drew him.
                             G                          Bm   A   G   A   Bm   A   G   A
But he couldn't be saved: a sadness runs through him, through him.

Chorus 2:
Bm            A               G             A
Time and again boys race to be men:
Bm                    A       G          A
impatient they start, fearful at end.
Bm                    A       G              A
But here was a man mourning tomorrow.

He could not break surface tension.
Bm                     A         G               A
He looked in the wrong place for redemption.

Don't look at me with those eyes;
A   G         A      Bm
I tried to anaethetize:
A                     G             Em
turn back the time that drew him.
                             G                          Bm   A   G   A   Bm   A   G   A
But he couldn't be saved: a sadness runs through him, through him.

Don't look...Don't look................Don't...Don't

Bm  A  G              A              Bm
Don't look at me with those eyes;
A   G         A      Bm
I tried to anaethetize:
A                     G             Em

                              G       Em                      G
But he couldn't be saved, no, he couldn't be saved:
                     Bm  A  G
sadness runs through him
A                   Bm  A  G
Sadness runs through him
A                   Bm  A  G
Sadness runs through him
A                   Bm  A  G
Sadness runs through him
A                   Bm  A  G    A
Sadness runs through him
