[Intro]
G D Dsus4 Cadd9 A7sus4
[Verse] (some palm muting for chords here):
G Dadd4 Dmadd4 Cadd9
Say, won't you stay; we can talk about nothing at all
Cmadd9 G Dsus4 D
We'll sit here and make up the words as we go along
G Dadd4
The games, we could play
Dmadd4 Cadd9
Maybe silently write us a song
Cmadd9 G Dsus4 D
Quietly shout from the roof that we don't belong
[Chorus]
G D Dsus4
They told me maybe she's crazy, a little like you, uh
Cadd9 A7sus4
Everyone said you were nothing but trouble, and
G Dadd4 Em A7sus4
All that I know is that I've never been here before
G D Dsus4
And though I'll never leave you, if it's alright with you, ah
Cadd9 A7sus4
Dreaming of oceans while jumping in puddles and
G Dadd4 Em
All of my life I pretend you were there by the door
Cadd9
I don't need to pretend any more.
[Instrumental end to chorus]
G D Dsus4 Cadd9 A7sus4
[Verse]
G Dadd4
Strange, oh so strange
Dmadd4 Cadd9
When it feels better being alone
Cmadd9 G Dsus4 D
You accept there is nobody else and set it in stone
G Dadd4
And then you, came along
Dmadd4 Cadd9
Your reflection was so sad it's wrong
Cmadd9 G Dsus4 D
You made me believe once again that I could be wrong.
[Chorus]
G D Dsus4
They told me maybe she's crazy, a little like you, uh
Cadd9 A7sus4
Everyone said you were nothing but trouble, and
G Dadd4 Em A7sus4
All that I know is that I've never been here before
G D Dsus4
And though I'll never leave you, if it's alright with you, ah
Cadd9 A7sus4
Dreaming of oceans while jumping in puddles and
G Dadd4 Em
All of my life I pretend you were there by the door
Cadd9
I don't need to pretend any more.
[Bridge]
Em7no5 Bmaug5 Cadd9 Em7no5 Bmaug5
And it hurts, to know, there was somebody out there as strange and
Cadd9 Em7no5 Bmaug5
As beautiful, as you
Cadd9
If I know, sooner
Instrumental end to bridge:
Em7 D Dsus4 Cadd9
[Chorus]
G D Dsus4
They told me maybe she's crazy, a little like you, uh
Cadd9 A7sus4
Everyone said you were nothing but trouble, and
G Dadd4 Em A7sus4
All that I know is that I've never been here before
G D Dsus4
And though I'll never leave you, if it's alright with you, ah
Cadd9 A7sus4
Dreaming of oceans while jumping in puddles and
G Dadd4 Em
All of my life I pretend you were there by the door
Cadd9
I don't need to pretend any more.
(backing singers sing chorus, while lead sings I don't need to pretend anymore) (chorus chords)
I don't need to pretend anymore
I don't need to pretend anymore
