F      Am7
 I know what we said
G            Em
 I know it’s for the best
F         Am7      G  Em
 I’m not oblivious
F      Am7
 I know this is it
G          Em

F           Am7         G  Em
 We couldn’t make it fit

So couldn’t we just pretend to be in love for a little bit longer?
             Bb                               C
Tell me that I’m the only one you’re thinking of
                       Bb                               C
Couldn’t you just hold on to me til I feel a little bit stronger
            Dm7     C       F      Am7  Bb
Couldn’t we just pretend to be in lo-o-ove?

🎸 Verse 2:

F         Am7
 I know a time will come
G             Em
 When we will both move on
F          Am7        G  Em
 And find another one
F             Am7
 But it would be alright
G             Em
 If you could hold me tight
F           Am7         G  Em
 For just another night

   To face the day on my own
