[A] Send in your skeletons, sing as their bones come [F#m] marching in [F]
again.
[Am] Delete your buried deep secrets that you keep [F#m] forever.
[F] Ready?
Are you ready?
[A] I'm finished making sense, done pleading yet for a breast [F#m] that holds [F] the fence.
[A] Skin and nest in the deeper, no realist in the [F#m] needed.
Never ending, [F]
never ending, [D] shameful story.
[Am] What if I say I'm not like the [C] others?

You're the [F] pretender.
What if I say I'm not a surrender?
[A]
I'm the voice inside your head, to refuse to hear.
I'm the face that you have to face, mirrored in your stare.
I'm what's left, I'm what's right, I'm the enemy.
I'm the hand that'll take you down, if you choose your means.
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
[Am] You're
[F#] [F] the pretender.
[Am] What if I say I'm not like the others?

What if I [C] say I'm not just another [D] one in your place?
[F] You're the pretender.
What if I say I'm [Am] not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just [F#] another one in your place?
You're [F] the pretender.
What if I say I'm not a surrender?
[D] [E] [A]
I am!
