[Intro] G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Verse 1]
G        Cadd9              G    Cadd9
   Never thought that I was weak

       D                    C
Always thought I could get hurt pretty bad

          C               G     Cadd9  G  Cadd9
Still get up on my own two feet

G            Cadd9             G    Cadd9
  I always believed that I was free

       D                   C
That I had some sense of integrity

           D              C                   G   Cadd9  G  Cadd9
That would rise above whatever tried to change me
[Chorus]
             Em  C         G
But honey, now     I won't wait

Em                 C                  G
  For something to bring me round and smile

Em                C            G
  Cause that only sticks for a while

               D
Then I'm back again

C                     G
  Oh, I'm a master pretender
[Interlude] (G) Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Verse 2]
G          Cadd9           G     Cadd9
  I always knew that I was young

           D                     C                    C               G  Cadd9  G  Cadd9
But with a head held high, and a sharp tongue I could   fool 'most anyone

G           Cadd9        G      Cadd9
  I never expected to be struck

       D              C             C           G   Cadd9  G  Cadd9
By the fatal hands of fortune or by   sheer bad luck
[Chorus]
             Em  C          G
But honey, now     we won't change

Em        C             G
  And memories just rearrange

    Em  C      G
And fall  into place

             D
So I'm back again

C                     G
  Oh, I'm a master pretender
[Interlude] (G) Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Middle 8]
        C                   G
Oh, the streets of New York City

C           G                  D
  Sure look pretty from way up here

    C            G
And I was headed home

C                 G                    D
  Just felt more alone the further I'd go
[Verse 3]
G          Cadd9                 G    Cadd9
  I always thought that you'd be here

    D                C      C               G     Cadd9  G  Cadd9
But shit gets fucked up and people just disappear
[Chorus]
            Em  C          G
So honey, now     don't be mad

Em         C          G
  Time has told me it  can't be that bad and if it is, 

Em  C                G
    well, I'll be goddamned

                D
But I'll stick around

C                       G      Cadd9  G  Cadd9
  I'll be your master defender

                  D
Yeah, I'll stick around

C                       G      Cadd9  G  Cadd9
  I'll be your master defender
[Outro] G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9
