#161 GREAT PRETENDER, THE
Oh, Gyes, I’m the D7great G G7pretender,
Cpretending that I’m living G G7well.
My Cneed is D7such, I Gpretend too Cmuch,
I’m Glonely but D7no one can G D7tell.
Oh, yes, I’m the great pretender,
a drift in a world of my own.
I play the game to my real shame,
you’ve left me to dream all alone.
Too Creal is this feeling of Gmake G7believe,
too Creal when I feel what my Gheart can’t D7conceal.
Oh, yes, I’m the great pretender,
just laughin’ and gay like a clown.
I seem to be what I’m not, you see,
I’m wearing my heart like a crown,
pretending that you’re not around.
Too Creal is this feeling of Gmake G7believe,
too Creal when I feel what my Gheart can’t D7conceal.
