Enjoy the following Harry Chapin tune.
Tangled Up Puppet
Harry Chapin (klr)
capo 5th fret
Im a D tangle up Dmaj7 puppet Bm spinning round in A7 knots
And the A more I see of what A7 used to be, the A less of you I
D got
D There was a time that you Dmaj7 curled up in my Bm lap like a
D child
Youd G cling to me [G/f#] smiling your [G/e] eyes wide and G
wild
Now you Bm slip through my D arms, wave a Bm passing [G/e]
hello
A Twist away , and A7 toss a kiss, A laughing as you D go
D You used to say, Read me a Dmaj7 story, and Bm sing me songs
of D love
For G you were Princess [G/f#] Paradise, on the [G/e] wings of a
G dove
Now I Bm chase you and D tease you trying to Bm remake you my
[G/e] own
But A you just turn A7 away and say, A Please leave me D
alone. A
And Im a D tangled up Dmaj7 puppet, all Bm hanging in your
A7 strings
Im a A butterfly in a A7 spiders web, A fluttering my D
wings
And the D more that I keep Dmaj7 dancing, and Bm spinning
round in A7 knots
The A more I see what A7 used to be and the A less of you I D
got
You are a D drawer full of Dmaj7 make-up and Bm rinses and D
things
You keep G changing your [G/f#] moods like your [G/e] earrings and
G rings
But Bm tonight while we played D tag for five Bm minutes in the
[G/e] yard
Well, A just for a A7 moment, I A caught you off D guard
A
And Im a D tangled up Dmaj7 puppet all Bm hanging in your A7
strings;
Im a A butterfly in a A7 spiders web, A fluttering my D
wings
And the D more that I keep Dmaj7 dancing, and Bm spinning
round in A7 knots,
The A more I see what A7 used to be and the A less of you I D
got
But for Bm now you write your G secret poems in a
A room just for your Bm dreams
You G dont find time to Bm talk to me A about the things you
mean. . .
What I G mean is
I have D watched you takes Dmaj7 shape from a Bm jumble of D
parts
And G find the grace and [G/f#] form of a [G/e] fine work of G
art
Hey, Bm you, my brand new D woman, newly Bm come into your
[G/e] own,
A Dont you know that A7 you dont need to A grow up all D
alone
I hope you all enjoyed that one.
