[A]
[G] [E]
[Bm] Swimming [E] in the dark, we're bound to [G] drift [E] apart
[Bm] And I just [D] can't go on, pretending [G] we're in [E] love
[Bm] We played with matches [A] in the rain, but never
[G] [E]
[Bm] We tried to light it, [A] but it never [G] glows
We tried to let it [Em] [E] be in [A] the past
Yes, I said love was [D] just a casting call
But [A] it's hot times I quit before [E] the curtain falls
So [G] you tell me to pretend to [B] love me
You tell me to pretend to [G] want me
You tell me to pretend to [B] need me
We just never were meant to, [D] I'm all gone
[E] Lost my
[Bm] mind
[A] You lost my [G] mind
[Em]
[Bm] Now I dance [A] around the clock, like an actor [G] plays the part
[E]
[Bm] I'll have the stage and [A] I get blinded by [G] bright lights
I'll have the stage and I [Em] get blinded by
[Bm]
I'll have the spell, but I [A] just can't reset [G] the lights
I'll lose [Em] it every night for [A] the last time
Yes, I said love was just [D] a casting call
But [A] it's hot times I quit before [E] the curtain falls
So you [G] tell me to pretend to love [B] me
You tell me to pretend to need [G] me
You tell me to pretend to need [B] me
You tell me to pretend to need me
We just never were meant to, I'm [D] all gone

You tell me to pretend [G] to want me
You tell me to pretend to need [B] me
We just never were meant to, I'm [D] all gone
[A] [E] So [G] you tell me to pretend to [B] love me
We just never were meant to, [G] love me
You tell me to pretend to [B] love me
We just never were meant to, [D] I'm all gone
[E] Lost my mind
[D] So get on with your life
This [E] will just wait In time
