Intro
G7   E7    F    Am  Dm  C  G

verse 1
      C          Bb                A7
If my smile ever fails to make you swoon
      Dm           Am              G
If my kiss doesn't send you to the moon
      E7
If my arms hold no charms
        F            B7
There's no need for alarm
        Am           Dm            C     G
Don't reveal how you feel, just pretend

verse 2
        C               Bb             A7
If your heart starts to long for other men
        Dm           Am             G
If your eye tends to wander now and then
          E7
I know it seems the grass is green
            F                B7
But that's just the stuff of dreams
         Am               Dm             C     G
Don't be fooled, don't be cruel, just pretend


verse 3
        F                          C
Just pretend I'm still the one you need, dear
        G7                       C
I don't care if it's only make believe, dear
                      E7             Am     D7
Don't discard me like I'm the latest trend
               C            Dm            C
Go through the motions of devotion and pretend

verse 4
    F                         C
Oh, love is often tedious and hard, dear
         G7                   C
It can't always be a Hallmark card, dear
                          E7             Am    D7
Try to find the spark within your heart again
               C            Dm            A7
Go through the motions of devotion and pretend
          F
Well, I'd rather that you fake it
       C               B7
If you left I couldn't take it
           D7                  G            C
You got my heart, so don't you break it, pretend
