D   G

[Verse]
            D                                               G
I'll make believe that the sight of her in my head's seldom seen,
           D                                               G
And then insist that I can't still taste the inside of her kiss.
             C                                          G
With luck in time, I might even fool myself about those lies,
                D                 G
Till there's no need, I'll make believe.

[Chorus]
             D                                         G
I'll just pretend that she really never left me in the end,
              D                                                        G
And all night long, swear right up and down round here there's nothin' wrong.
             C                                                 G
With work my mind could cause the truth to get lost or hard to find,
          D                  G
But until then, I'll just pretend.

[Verse]
         D                   G
Oh how I wish you could have seen her,
              D             G
Come crawlin' back a-beggin me.
           C               G  
Cos if you had, I wouldn't need her,
       D              G
Like I do so desperately.

[Chorus]
             D                                         G
I'll just pretend that she really never left me in the end,
              D                                                        G
And all night long, swear right up and down round here there's nothin' wrong.
             C                                                 G
With work my mind could cause the truth to get lost or hard to find,
          D                  G     D   G
But until then, I'll just pretend.
