C  F/C  Bm  E  F  G

Am  F  G  Em x2

Am                F
  You dress me up, I’m your puppet
G                   Em
  You buy me things, I love it
Am                  F
  You bring me food, I need it
G                  Em
  You give me love, I feed it

Am                F            G             Em             Am
  And look at the two of us in sympathy with everything we see
                 F              G         Em               C
  I never wanted anything, it’s easy, you buy whatever I need

                 F/C                Bm          E              F
  But look at my hopes, look at my dreams, the currency we’ve spent
           G               Am    F        G              Am
  I  love you, you pay my rent    I love you, you pay my rent

Am  F  G  Em x2

You phoned me in the evening on hearsay and bought me caviar
You took me to a restaurant off Broadway to tell me who you are

We never ever argue, we never calculate the currency we’ve spent
I  love you, you pay my rent x3

I’m your puppet, I love it

And look at the two of us in sympathy and sometimes ecstasy
Words mean so little and money less, when you’re lying next to me

But look at my hopes, look at my dreams, the currency we’ve spent
I  love you, you pay my rent
I  love you, you pay my rent
