Chorus:
Gm                         A7
Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
Dm7                                A#maj7
He'll judge me by the fact that my face don't fit.
Gm                                 A7
It's touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder.
Dm7                              A#maj7
He's waiting for the day when he gets me,

             F      Am7            Dm7         A#maj7
But I don't need no alibi - I'm a puppet on a string.
        F         Am7         Dm7 A#maj7
I just need this stage to be seen.
        F      Am7           Dm7            A#maj7
We all need a pantomime to remind us what is real.
         F       Am7         Dm7   A#maj7
Hold my eye and know what it means.

Gm            A#maj7
I'm out of my mind
F             Am
I'm out of my mind - x4

Chorus

But I won't be your concubine - I'm a puppet not a whore
I just need this stage to be seen
Will you be a friend of mine to remind me what is real?
Hold my heart and see that it bleeds

I'm out of my mind
I'm out of my mind - x6
