[intro]


[verse]
Gm
Keep you in the dark
               Em7b5   D#maj
You know they all pretend
Gm
Keep you in the dark
         Em7b5   D#maj
And so it all began

Gm
Send in your skeletons
                                 C/E    D#
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
Gm
They need you buried deep
                               C/E
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
D#              F
Are you ready?

Gm
I'm finished making sense

Done pleading ignorance
        C/E         D#   F
That whole ,  defense

Gm
Spinning infinity, boy

The wheel is spinning me
       C/E         D#         F
It's never-ending, never-ending
 C
 Same old story


[chorus]
Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                     C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                   C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#
What if I say that I'll never surrender?


[verse]
Gm
In time or so I'm told
                           C/E           D#  F
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
Gm
The page is out of print

We are not permanent
      C/E          D#          F
We're tem-po-rary, tem-po-rary
C
Same old story


[chorus]
Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                     C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                   C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#                                           C
What if I say that I'll never surrender?


[Bridge]
G5
I'm the voice inside your head
G5
You refuse to hear
G5
I'm the face that you have to face
G5
Mirrored in your stare
G5
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
G5
I'm the enemy
G5
I'm the hand that will take you down
G5
Bring you to your knees
G5
So who are you?
G5
Yeah, who are you?
G5
Yeah, who are you?
G5
Yeah, who are you?


[Interlude]
Gm
Keep you in the dark
             Em7b5   D#maj
You know they all pretend


[Chorus]
Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                     C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                   C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                     C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

Gm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                   C/E
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

You're the pretender
D#                                         C
What if I say that I'll never surrender?


[outro]
G5
So who are you?
G5
Yeah, who are you?
G5
Yeah, who are you?
