                G7   G7/13-         C    B7    C 
Pretend you're happy when you're blue 
         C/B          Dm    A7    Dm 
It isn't very hard to do 
                F             Dm7     G7 
And you'll find happiness without an end 
    F     G7     C     B7    G7  
Whenever you pretend 
           G7 G7/13-      C    B7   C 
Remember anyone can dream 
              C/B            Dm    A7   Dm 
And nothing's bad as it may seem 
             F        Dm7     G7 
The little things you haven't got 
       F    G7           C   Dm7   C 
Could be a lot if you pretend 
Bridge 
              Em           F 
You'll find a love you can share 
            C°          C6     G7    C6 
One you can call all your own 
      Am6       B7      F#m7     B7 
Just close your eyes, she'll be there 
       Em   C°   G7 
You'll never be alone 
            G7       G7/13-  C     B7 C 
And if you sing this melody 
              C/B              Dm   A7   Dm 
You'll be pretending just like me 
               F              Dm7       G7 
The world is mine, it can be yours, my friend 
    F         G7 G7/13-  C    C° G7 
So why don't you pretend

And if you sing this melody

You'll be pretending just like me
