note: everything in the round brackets is what sounds better with the acoustic
version.. the rest sounds better (to me, at least) with the full band.
Standard tuning!!
G.... C....
[Em(Am)]Your gross fabrication of pretense could bore,
Yet still I fall victim to [Bm(G)]syntax omitted, Just shy of something I could understand
So blissful, I press [Em(Am)]on to the sound of the organs
Playing their most convincing tunes[C(G)] As they serenade to the parade of paid-off parts
[Am]And now the only thing left to discuss is
[Em]The details of this armistice
[G]We've come to this agree[Em]ment...
[Am]Check my vitals; the truth is vile, but vital to this cause
[C]I've been held hostage; A captive of this passive shell
[G/B]Give me gravity, give me clarity,
Give me something to re[C]ly on
[Am]We're all puppets
We're all marionettes
[C/G]We're all puppets
We're all marionettes
[Em(Am)]These body parts are parts of plans, Passed by my hands
My [Bm(G)]hands shake through handshakes, Forsaken by my limbs
My limbs sing the [Em(Am)]hymns; The hymns of a tyrant in a crumbling pantheon
[C(G)]As inhabitants will raise their fists and bid him to disarm
[Am]Check my vitals; the truth is vile, but vital to this cause
[C]I've been held hostage; A captive of this passive shell
[G]Give me gravity, give me clarity,
Give me something to re[C]ly on
[Em]We'[(Am)]re all puppets
We're all marionettes
[C/G]We're all puppets
We're all marionettes

[G]Oh, how I've been teething
In light of your mi[Em]sleading You've caused this collapse
