        Bridge  (guitars 1 & 2 tacet)
 The violin 1 part I got from the music book that was put out.  I figured out the rest of it and
arranged it for  guitar.  The 'other' section is just 'D' and 'C' chords being played. I don't
know what intrument(s) it is so that's why it's called 'other'.

 Lyrics
        Intro

        Verse 1

The marionette has your number
Pulling your arms and legs till you can't stand on your own
Dragging your conscience on the stage
And your heart gets rearranged
And you can not tell your mentor from your Maker.

Look at the crowds bleeding with laughter
Over the way you entertain at beckon call
They don't see behind the lights
Or the painted backgrounds
They just like to see you fall.

        Chorus

But you don't really mind
Cause you're just wasting time
You can't feel anything
Just a boy on a string.

        Verse 2

I feel a sadness like Gapetto
Watching the life that he created run away
Seeing the puppeteer's intrusion
And holding the remains
Of puppets that have rotted away.

One day the curtain will not open (will not open)
And all of the crowds will go away (crowds will go away)
Someday those strings will choke you
But until that day.

        Chorus

But you don't really mind
Cause you're just wasting time
You can't feel anything
Just a boy on a string.

        Bridge

Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy....

        Chorus

But you don't really mind
Cause you're just wasting time
You can't feel anything
Just a boy on a string.
                        Repeat
