Pretend chords by Bad Suns

Intro: E  G#m   F#   C#m  x2



Verse 1:

  G#m
Sometimes I wish that we could all forget

  G#m
Your figure fades into a silhouette

        B  C#m    G#m
But I hear you breathing

      B  C#m  G#m
I'm done be-lieving.

E                                 B
We're painting portraits but the canvas is blank

E                           B
If this life is a gift then who do we pay?

         C#m              E
You're desperate for the answer

   C#m               E
It eats at you like cancer.


Chorus:

E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
Tonight won't ever end; can we pretend, pretend, pretend?

       E                G#m              F#                C#m
We'll paint the walls instead and I'll pretend, pretend, pretend again.



Verse 2:

 G#m
Your head is filled with unproven thoughts

 G#m
Twisting theories into bigger knots

        B  C#m    G#m
And I feel you dreaming

        B  C#m  G#m
You're done be-lieving.


E                            B
Tried to avoid this but I'm weak to the bone

E                          B
My inner compass points me to the unknown

       C#m                 E
But I still keep running faster

        C#m                 E
Yea, someday I'll find the answer.



Chorus:


E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
Tonight won't ever end; can we pretend, pretend, pretend?

       E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
We'll paint the walls instead and I'll pretend, pretend, pretend again.

E      F#               C#m
Ooh, pretend, pretend, pretend

       E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
We'll paint the walls instead, and I'll pretend, pretend, pretend again.


Bridge:

G#m          B
I wanted to know you

          E                C#m
Though I still don't know myself

G#m                  B
I've got so much to show you

           E                C#m
Won't you show me the way? (yea)


Chorus:

E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
Tonight won't ever end; can we pretend, pretend, pretend?

  E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
I don't want this to end so I'll pretend, pretend, pretend again

E      F#                C#m
Ooh, pretend, pretend, pretend

E                  G#m         F#                 C#m
Tonight won't ever end; can we pretend, pretend, pretend instead?

E             G#m
Lights turned low

F#            C#m                     E        G#m
Lights turned low cause I don't wanna see this go

                F#               C#m
So can I just pretend, pretend, pretend instead?
