Pretending Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I saw the face in the window
[C]Lighting up a cigar[G]ette
Smokey [Bm]brown eyeshadow
[G]I learnt it from [C]a woman
on the inter[D]net[G]

[Verse 2]
Oh, [G]how the hell have [Bm]you been babe?
[C]Put your coat on [G]the bed
Let me get you a cup
[Bm]Sip it up, up, right t[C]o your h[D]ead[C]

[Verse 3]
All the people over [D]there
They don't seem to have [Em]a care
I'm so fucking self [G]aware
it's [C]exhausting
And no matter how I [D]try
I repeat it every [Em]night, every night,
every night, every night

[Verse 4]
I'm [G]done pretend[D]ing, pretending
[Am]Done pretend[Bm]ing[Em]
All of my heroes [D]are way
more sad [Am]than [C]me[G][Em]
Am [D]I the only o[G]ne pretendi[D]ng,
pre[G]tend[D]ing
[Am]One pretending?
[Em]Oh, who are you [D]so afrai[Bm]d to
[C]be? To be? To [G]be? [D]To be? To be?
[G]

[Verse 5]
I lied about liking your [Bm]dress
[C]I lied about sticking [G]around
I lied about knowing the [Bm]band that you
talked and [C]talked all night [D]about[G]

[Verse 6]
So [G]take it up with [Bm]the jury
'Cause [C]I don't really care anymore
[G]And if you listen real close you might [Bm]just
hear [C]the penny drop on [D]the floor[C]

[Verse 7]
All the people over [D]there
They don't seem to have [Em]a care
I'm so fucking self [G]aware
it's [C]exhausting
And no matter how I [D]try
I repeat it every [Em]night, every night,
every night, every night

[Verse 8]
I'm [G]done pretend[D]ing, pretending
[Am]Done [G]pretending
[Em]All of my heroes are [D]way more sad than [C]me
Am [Bm]I the only on[G]e pretending,
pretending
[Am]One [Em]pretending?
Oh, who are [D]you so afraid [G]to be? [C]To be?
To be? To [G]be? To be?

[Interlude 1]
[D][C][D][Em][C]

[Verse 9]
Am I the [D]only one pretending?
Pretending, [C]one pretending
Am I the only one pretending?
(Leave me alone)
Pretending, one pretending
Am I the [D]only [Bm]one [C]pretending?
(I wanna [D]go [C]home)
Pretending, one pretending
Am [D]I the only [C]one pretending?
(Leave me alone)
Pretending, one pretending
[Am]Am I [C]the only one pretending?
(I wanna go home)
Pretending, one pretending
Pretending
