How Does A Man Become A Puppet Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Once, I was a boy,[E]
[Em]free as the birds that fly
from the trees [D]to [Em]the sky.
[Asus4]An d just[A] li[Dm]ke a boy likes to do,[G]
I would [Em]dream and plan
[Am]I'd [C]stil[F]l be free as I
[G]was when I was a man
[C]How [Em]does[D#] a man become a puppet?[Ddim]
A [C#]puppet with [Csus4]strings, attach[B]ments,
and [Bb]things that [Eb]bind you,
tell [Bb]me, h[Eb]ow does a man
become a [Ddim]puppet?
You [Db]keep running [Csus4]fast,
but [B]somehow the [Bb]past will [Eb]find you,
that's the [Bb]way i[Eb]t goes.
[Em]So, I made my [E]mark.
[Em]I found success has brought
so much [G]less than [Em]I so[Asus4]ught.
[A]And, [Dm]I just get pulled back and fo[G]rth
in my [Em]search for [F]joy.
[C]I'm[F] not as free as I was[G]
when I was a [C]boy
[Eb]How does a man become a [Ddim]puppet,
a [Db]puppet
With [Csus4]strings, at[B]tachments,
and [Bb]things that [Eb]bind you?
Tell me, how does a man become
a [Ddim]puppet?[Db][Csus4][B][Bb][Eb]
If [Bb]there's such [Eb]a thing
As a [Bb]man that's [Gm]free
Why can't it be me?
[Eb]
