We Pretend Chords by Demis Roussos

[N] _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _
We pretend that the end hasn't [Ebm] found us
And we [Ab]
cling to the things left [Db] behind [Fm] us
Line [Bbm] by line every rhyme has [Ebm] been written
_ And [Bbm] _
time [F] left us here [Bbm] _ unaware
_ _ In our lives, gentle signs, words [Ebm] _ _ unspoken _ _
[Ab] Yesterdays will remain _ [Db] _
unforgotten
_ Love went [Bbm] by and we tried once [Ebm] too _ often
To [Bbm] save all the [F] dreams that we [Bbm] _ _
shared
And [Ebm] here [Ab] we stand, the [Db] silent _ [Bbm] strangers _ _
[Ebm] Afraid to [Ab] ask which [Db] way to go
[Bbm] _ _ [Ebm] Our _ empty [Ab] hands at first [Db] _ surrendered
[Bbm] But [Eb] the reason why we'll never [F] _
_ know
We _ [Bbm] pretend that the end of [Ebm] our _ rainbow _
[Ab] Cannot die if it lies like [Db] a shadow
_ _ [Bbm] Willows bend when the wind [Ebm] blows to _ conquer _
_ _ [Bbm] Leaves that [F] have withered [Bbm] away
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _

_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
We _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _
can drown to the sun like we [Ebm] used to
_ [Ab] Nothing lasts from the past that [Db] we once [F] knew
You and [Bbm] I can deny that it's [Ebm] _ over
And [Bbm] yet we must [F] face it [Bbm] _ somehow _
And [Ebm] here we [Ab] stand, the [Db] silent _ [Bbm] strangers
_ _ [Ebm] Afraid to [Ab] ask which [Db] way to go
[Bbm] _
_ [Ebm] Our empty _ [Ab] _ _
[Db] hands at first [Bbm] surrendered
_ [Eb] But the reason why we'll [F] _ _ _
never know
We [Bbm] pretend that the end hasn't [Ebm] found us
And we [Ab] cling to the [Db] things left behind [F] us
Line [Bbm] by line every rhyme has been [Ebm] _ written
And _ [Bbm]
time left [F] us here [Bbm] unaware _ _
[Gb] _ In [Bm] our eyes gentle signs first unspoken
[Em] _ _ _ _ [A] _
Yesterdays will remain _ [D] unforgotten _
