[verse]
Cm
Keep you in the dark
               Am7b5   G#maj
You know they all pretend
Cm
Keep you in the dark
         Am7b5   G#maj
And so it all began

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

Cm
I'm finished making sense

Done pleading ignorance
        F/A         G#   A#
That whole ,  defense

Cm
Spinning infinity, boy

The wheel is spinning me
       F/A         G#         A#
It's never-ending, never-ending
 F
 Same old story


[chorus]
Cm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                     F/A
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

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

Cm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                   F/A
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

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


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

We are not permanent
      F/A          G#          A#
We're tem-po-rary, tem-po-rary
F
Same old story


[chorus]
Cm
What if I say I'm not like the others?
                                     F/A

You're the pretender

What if I say that I'll never surrender?

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


[Bridge]
C5
I'm the voice inside your head
C5
You refuse to hear
C5
I'm the face that you have to face
C5
Mirrored in your stare
C5
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
C5
I'm the enemy
C5
I'm the hand that will take you down
C5
Bring you to your knees
C5
So who are you?
C5
Yeah, who are you?
C5
Yeah, who are you?
C5
Yeah, who are you?
