[Am] [E] [Am]
[F#] [F]
[Am] Keep you in the [Em] dark, [Am] you know [F#] they don't [F] pretend.
[Am] Keep you in the [Em] dark, [Am] and so [F#] it all [F] began.
[E] [A] Send in your skeletons, sing as their bones start [F#m] marching in.

[F#m]
[F] Ready?
Are you [Em] ready?
[Am] I'm finished [Em] making [A] sense, competing [Em] in your [F#m] best at home
[F] defense.
[A] Spending an energy burn, your will is spinning me.
It's never ending, [F] never [D] ending.
Sing on the [G] song.
[Am] What if I say I'm not like the others?
[C] What if I say [Am] I'm not [F#] trusting?
I will guard your blanks.
You'll look and stand there.
[F] What if I say I will never surrender?
[Am] What if I say I'm not like the others?

[A] [Em]
[Am] I'm just another [F#m] soul to sell.
[Em] [F] Oh well.
[Em] [A] The pages of the past, they are not permanent.
[F#m] Well, tempo never [F] reads.
Tempo never [D] reads.
Same old [G] story.
[Am] What if I say I'm not like the others?
[C] What if I say I'm [Am] not just [F#] another one in your place?

[F] What if I say I'll never surrender?
[D] [E] [D] [G] [A]
The voice inside your head, you infuse it again.
I'm the face that you have to face, mirror 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?
Who are you?

[Am] [Em] [Am] you?
You're [F#]
[F] the pretender.

What [C] if I [Am] say I'm not just another [F#] one in your place?
You're the pretender.
[F] What if I say I'll never surrender?
[Am] What if I say I'm not like the others?
[Bm] What if I [Am] say I'm not just [D] another one in your place?

[F#] thank [F] you for watching
