Make Believe chords by JJ Heller

♫ Verse 1:

      D                                           G
You said you couldn't keep me when you were seventeen
      Am            G
Too young to be a father
      G                           Em
You kissed my hand and took your leave
           C              G
And you taught me how to make believe


[Chorus I]

       Am                               Em
Make believe I was a gift to you from heaven
                                              Am
Make believe that you would take me as your own
                            Am                               Em
Make believe that you would set the mark of what a man should be
      Am              C      G
You taught me how to make believe

♫ Verse 2:
    D
And now that I've grown older
   G
I long for us to meet
    Am                 G
I have a million questions
     G                  Em
But most of all I want to see
     C                  G
If all of it was make believe

[Chorus I]
        Am                            Em
Make believe I was a gift to you from heaven
                                             Am
Make believe that you would take me as your own
                           Am                                Em
Make believe that you would set the mark of what a man should be
        Am           C        G
You taught me how to make believe

♫ Verse 3:
           D            Am
Another year has come and gone
      Cm                Am
I am living with your family
    G               Em
And I feel right at home

In the place where I always wanted to be

♫ Verse 4:
      D              G
I'm going out this evening
   Am               G
I check the mirror twice
     G              Em
You stop me on the staircase
      C                      D     Asus4          Em
You kiss my hand and say that I look beautiful tonight

[Chorus II]
        Am                                  Em
And I believe I was a gift to you from heaven
                                        Dsus4
And I believe that you would take me as your own
                   Am                                Em
I believe that you set the mark of what a man should be
Em                   C      G
Now I don't have to make believe

                      C     G
(Now I don’t have to make believe)
