	  		Introdução: D Dº D7

G                 D7          G
Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender,

G7     C                   G
Pretending that I'm doing well

G7  C       D7            G        C 
My need is such, I pretender too much

      G             D7       G       D7
I'm lonely, but no one can tell

     G             Am         G
Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender,

G7   C                      G
  A drift in a world of my own

G7    C        D7          G        C
   I play the game, but to my real shame

C#º     G          D7         G
You've left me to dream all alone

G7     C       D7          G       C
   I play the game, but to my real shame

C#º     G          D7         G
You've left me to dream all alone

G7  C                         G
Too real is  the  feeling of make believe

    C            Am            G             D7
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

     G            Am          G
Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender,

G7   C                       G
Just laughing and gay like a clown

G7 C       D7           G
I  seem to be what I'm  not,

G7    C   C#º    G          D7            B7
You see,     I'm wearing my heart like a crown

   C            D7           G
Pretending that you're still around

G7  C                      G
Too real is the feeling of make me believe

    C            Am            G             D7
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender,

G7   C                       G
Just laughing and gay like a clown

G7 C       D7           G
I  seem to be what I'm  not,

G7    C   C#º    G          D7            B7
You see,     I'm wearing my heart like a crown

   C            D7           G
Pretending that you're still around
