Chords

[Verse 1]
G                     Bm
I saw the face in the window

C                        G
Lighting up a cigarette

                       Bm
Smokey brown eyeshadow

                   C                     G
I learnt it from a woman on the internet

                          Bm
How the hell have you been, babe?

C                        G
Put your coat on the bed
Let me get you a cup
Bm                  C
Sip it up up, right to your head
[Pre-chorus]
C                   D
All the people over there

                          Em
They don't seem to have a care

                     G
I'm so fucking self aware, it's exhausting

C                   D
And no matter how I try

                  Em
I repeat it every night, every night, every night, every night
[Chorus]
    G
I'm done pretending, pretending

Am
Done pretending

Em                   D                  C
All of my heroes are way more sad than me

              G
Am I the only one pretending, pretending

Am             Em
One pretending?

                D            C                               G
Oh, who are you so afraid to be, to be? to be? to be? to be
[Verse 2]
                        Bm
I lied about liking your dress

  C                        G
I lied about sticking around

                         Bm                       C                      G
I lied about knowing the band that you talked and talked all night about

                         Bm
So take it up with the jury

       C                           G
'Cause I don't really care anymore

                                 Bm                  C
And if you listen real close you might just hear the penny drop on the floor
[Pre-chorus]
C                   D
All the people over there

                          Em
They don't seem to have a care

                     G
I'm so fucking self aware, it's exhausting

C                   D
And no matter how I try

                  Em
I repeat it every night, every night, every night, every night
[Chorus]
    G
I'm done pretending, pretending

Am
Done pretending

Em                   D                  C
All of my heroes are way more sad than me

              G
Am I the only one pretending, pretending

Am             Em
One pretending?

                D            C
Oh, who are you so afraid to be, to be? to be? to be? to be
[Interlude] D/A C Em D/A C Em C [Outro]
               D                            C
(Am I the only one pretending, pretending, one pretending?)

         D   C
Leave me alone
(Am I the only one pretending, pretending, one pretending?)
           D  C
I wanna go home
(Am I the only one pretending, pretending, one pretending?)
         D   C
Leave me alone
(Am I the only one pretending, pretending, one pretending?) N.C. I wanna go— (Am I the only one pretending, pretending, one pretending, pretending?)
