Intro:        

 

                                            

Oh yes, I'm the Great           Pretender,

                                

Pretending I'm doing well.

                                         #

My need is such, I pretend too much,

                             

I'm lonely but no one can tell

                            

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender,

                                      

Adrift in a world  of my own

                                   #

I play the game, but to my real shame

                                  

You've left me to dream all alone.

                                       

Too real is this feeling of make believe,

                                                         

Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

 

                            

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender

                                       

Just lauging and gay like a clown

                                         #

I seem to be, what I'm not, you see,

                                        #

I'm wearing my heart like a crown,

                               

Pretending that you're still around

 

                                                           #

Too real when I fell what my heart can't conceal

(everything moves up 1/2 step)

 

       #              #        #      #     

Oh yes, I'm the great   pretender

                                     

Just lauging and gay like a clown

                                #      #

I seem to be, what I'm not, you see,

                     #          B#min      

I'm wearing my heart like a crown,

                        

Pretending that you're...

                                       

Pretending that your're....         still around...
