Alec Benjamin - Pretending

In this masque^Em7rade, she can't feel the^C pain Cover up her ^Amheart, with a little paint While he's pulling out a ^Em7flask, to hide it all ^Caway There's nothing left to^Am say

^Em7He knows that^C they're drowning ^AmShe hopes that there's still something left ^Em7Let go now^C cause he's leav^Aming

But she'd be fine pre^Em7tending Things were alright^C, even while it's ^Dending keep it inside She can feel them ^Em7bending All their love is ^Cpending so what is she ^Amdefending? Even when she ^Em7says she'll open her e^Cyes All her words are em^Dpty when she denies But she can feel them ^Em7bending All their love is ^Cpending so what is she de^Amfending? But she'd be fine p^Em7rete^C (^Deh)^Em7 x10^C (^Dshe'd be fine)

Step into the ^Em7light, to look him in the^C eye Feeling so ex^Amposed, she tries to stay composed But every little ^Em7fight and every little^C lie is impossible to^Am hide

^Em7He knows that^C they're drowning ^AmShe hopes that there's still something left ^Em7Let go now^C cause he's^Am leaving

But she'd be fine pre^Em7tending things were a^Clright Even while it's ^Dending keep it inside She can feel them ^Em7bending All their love is ^Cpending so what is she de^Amfending? Even when she ^Em7says she'll open her ^Ceyes All her words are ^Dempty when she denies But she can feel them ^Em7bending All their love is ^Cpending so what is she def^Amending? But she'd be fine p^Em7rete^C (^Deh)^Em7 x10^C (^Dshe'd be fine)

^Cmaj7I hate to watch her hurt, I ^Aknow it isn't right ^Cmaj7But she can find the courage to ^Aleave it all behind ^Cmaj7I wish I had the words to help ^Aher realize ^Cmaj7That there is just no way to bring^A this back to life ^Em7He knows that^C they're drowning^Am

But she'd be fine ^Em7pretending things were^C alright Even while it's ^Dending keep it inside She can feel them ^Em7bending All their love is ^Cpending, so what is she ^Amdefending? Even when she ^Em7says she'll open her^C eyes All the words are ^Dempty when she denies But she can feel them ^Em7bending all their love is^C pending so what is she^Am defending? But she'd be fine p^Em7rete^C (^Deh)^Em7 x10^{C Am}
