Verse 1:
 F
  I’m looking in the mirror but that’s not me

 Am
  It’s someone else who looks a little like me

 Bb                        C#         C
  But they’re trying way too hard

 F
  I go outside in borrowed clothes and borrowed shoes

 Am
  It seemed like the most logical thing to do

 Bb                             C#            C               F       Fsus4       F
  But it’s not safe to go out in the middle of the night


Pre-Chorus:
 Gm                              Am
  But it’s all my head has got

 Bb
  To be everything I’m not

 Dm                                 C
Take me and paint me by numbers

 Gm                          Am
  And though my head can try

 Bb
  This happens every night

 Dm                                  C    C/C#
I’m not your sister or brother


Chorus:
            Bb
I’m an imposter I know

            F          A
I’m an imposter I know

            Bb
I’m an imposter I know

           F                           A
And I’m loving the bluffing but I really know nothing no

Verse 2:
 F
  I wile away the weeks with a sour face

 Am
  Knowing now that someone else has took my place

 Bb                        C#         C
  They're still trying way too hard

 F
  I wished for this I know but now I take it back

 Am
  I’ll return as the slowest in the wolfpack

 Bb
  now those old flaws seem like bliss

 Dm                Dm/C#              C
  just give me anything but this


Chorus:
 A                Bb
Oh, I’m an imposter I know

            F          A
I’m an imposter I know

            Bb
I’m an imposter, do you think they know

            F                           A
When I’m loving the bluffing but I really know nothing no

Bridge:
(play arpeggios!)
 Gm                      Am
  And then the party stops

 Bb                           Dm
  And all the bodies swap back to their owners,

        C                   Gm
It’s horribly normal again

               Am       Bb
Sweaty and confused,  I look around the room

 Dm                                C      C/C#
I’m just like all of the others!


Interlude:
    Bb      F     A
Oooohh

    Bb      F     A
Oooohh  Oh Ooh Oh


Chorus:
            Bb
I’m an imposter I know

            F          A
I’m an imposter I know

            Bb
I’m an imposter, do you think they know

            F                           A
When I’m loving the bluffing but I really know- no no

 Bb
Oh, I know

            F          A
I’m an imposter I know

            Bb
I’m an imposter, do you think they know

            F                           A
When I’m loving the bluffing but I really know nothing no
