Pretend

[Verse 1]
                     G                                                    Am
be like me tellin? you that the sun doesn?t shine every time that it rains,
C                                                                                   G
and that the moon doesn?t come out at night ?til the sun comes back again,
                     G                                              Am
and like me tellin? you that a cowboy has never rode across the plains,
       C                                                                        G
is about the same as me tellin? you that my heart?s not filled with pain...

[Chorus]
                 G                                              Am
so maybe I should just pretend that you never touched my hand,
           C                                                         Bb                C
then maybe I wouldn?t feel like there?s no reason to live again,
                   G                                                                Am
maybe I shouldn?t have turned around, and drove this car back across town,
               C                   C/B                                   Am
knowin? I?m the one thing you don?t wanna see...
                                C                              D
it would all make sense if I could pretend
                                 G
that you never loved me...

                   G                                            Am
be like me tellin? you that the desert isn?t covered in sand,
              C                                                         G
and the way I feel in my heart for you fit into God?s plan,
                       G                                                                 Am
and like me tellin you that the star down in Texas ain?t standin? alone,
               C                                                                     G
and the four walls of this empty house make me feel right at home...

[Chorus]
                 G                                              Am
so maybe I should just pretend that you never touched my hand,
           C                                                         Bb                C
then maybe I wouldn?t feel like there?s no reason to live again,
                   G                                                                Am

               C                   C/B                                   Am
knowin? I?m the one thing you don?t wanna see...
                                C                              D
it would all make sense if I could pretend
                                 G
that you never loved me...

[Verse 3]
                        G                                                    Am
it?d be like me tellin? you that I?m not the kind to ever make-believe,
                   C                                                                         G
but when I opened my eyes this mornin?, you were still there lyin? right next to me...

[Chorus]
                 G                                              Am
so maybe I should just pretend that you never touched my hand,
           C                                                         Bb                C
then maybe I wouldn?t feel like there?s no reason to live again,
                   G                                                                Am

               C                   C/B                                   Am
knowin? I?m the one thing you don?t wanna see...
                                C                              D
it would all make sense if I could pretend
                                 G
that you never loved me...
