The Wild Reeds - Don't Pretend chords
Start Jamming...
I missed that week in [D] the hospital
Too sick to see you [Bm] but made sure to call
It spiraled downward [G] from then and I got sick [A] again
I'm overwhelmed [D] by it all
[G] If I could open up enough to
[A] feel your love
Maybe [G] it'd be more bearable till [A] the treatment's set
But [D] don't pretend that the world [F#m] has never been [Bm] good to you
[D] Don't suspend all your plans when [F#m] you know you should [G] follow
I never pushed [D] the limits
I lived inside them, [Bm] didn't mind it
Didn't dare ask [G] questions, never swam in the deep [A] end
I was afraid to [D] try
And I feel like a [G] bad kid
Cause no one [A] deserves this
So I'll just [G] sit here quietly with [A] my hands folded
Don't [D] pretend that the world has [F#m] never been good [Bm] to you
Don't [D] suspend all your plans when [F#m] you know you should [G] follow
[D] Don't you dare play the victim [F#m] when you have the power [Bm] to choose
Don't [D] pretend that the world has [F#m] never been good [G] to you
[D] I
[G]
[D]
[G] [D]
won't pretend,
[F#m] [G]
[D] I won't [F#m] pretend [G] anymore
Who'd [D] beg and discover [F#m] the goodness [G] that love brings
