Bad Suns - Pretend

So^G#mmetimes I wish that we could all forget Yo^G#mur figure fades into a silhouette

But I he^Bar ^C#myou bre^G#mathing I'm do^Bne ^C#mbe-li^G#meving.

^EWe're painting portraits but the c^Banvas is blank ^EIf this life is a gift then ^Bwho do we pay?

You're de^C#msperate for the a^Enswer It ^C#meats at you like c^Eancer.

^ETonight won't ever ^G#mend; can we ^F#pretend, pretend, p^C#mretend? We'll p^Eaint the walls in^G#mstead and I'll pr^F#etend, pretend, pr^C#metend again.

Y^G#mour head is filled with unproven thoughts T^G#mwisting theories into bigger knots

And I fe^Bel ^C#myou dre^G#maming You're d^Bone^C#m be-l^G#mieving.

^ETried to avoid this but I'm w^Beak to the bone ^EMy inner compass points me ^Bto the unknown

But I s^C#mtill keep running fa^Ester Yea, som^C#meday I'll find the a^Enswer.

^ETonight won't ever ^G#mend; can we ^F#pretend, pretend, p^C#mretend? We'll p^Eaint the walls inst^G#mead and I'll^F# pretend, pretend, ^C#mpretend again.

^EOoh, pr^F#etend, pretend, p^C#mretend We'll p^Eaint the walls inst^G#mead, and I'l^F#l pretend, pretend,^C#m pretend again.

^G#mI wanted to k^Bnow you Though I s^Etill don't know m^C#myself

^G#mI've got so much to s^Bhow you Won't you s^Ehow me the way? (^C#myea)

^ETonight won't ever ^G#mend; can we ^F#pretend, pretend, p^C#mretend? I ^Edon't want this to ^G#mend so I'll ^F#pretend, pretend, p^C#mretend again

^EOoh, pr^F#etend, pretend, pr^C#metend ^ETonight won't ever ^G#mend; can we ^F#pretend, pretend, p^C#mretend instead?

^ELights turned ^G#mlow ^F#Lights turned ^C#mlow cause I don't wanna ^Esee this ^G#mgo

So can I just pr^F#etend, pretend, p^C#mretend instead?
