CAPO: 2
 
[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
GI will be your shoulder to cry on
EmI will make you laugh if you need
DI will play the part if you say so
CYeah, I'll be anybody but me
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em DTo tell you the truth, I'm a mess, I'm a fool
C DYou don't know that
EmAnd you never will
D CIn my mind, it's instilled not to show that
 
 
[Chorus]
GI spend almost all of my time
DFeeling like I'm falling even further behind
Em CAnd I know I'm so good at seeming
DLike I'm not on the edge of a knife
C EmI'm the pretender, what can I tell ya?
DDesigned to deceive
C GSo, tell me who you want me to be
 
 
[Verse 2]
GI can wear a million faces
Em'Cause I don't like the one underneath
DAlways found it easy to fake it
CYeah, I'll be anybody but me
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em DTo tell you the truth, I'm the fraud in the room
C DAnd I know that
EmBut you never will
D CIn my mind, it's instilled not to show that
 
 
[Chorus]
GI spend almost all of my time
DFeeling like I'm falling even further behind
Em CAnd I know I'm so good at seeming
DLike I'm not on the edge of a knife
GI feel like everything I Do is a lie
DAnd all the words just further pull the wool over eyes
Em C DI know I'm no good at being who I Am away from the light
C EmI'm the pretender, what can I tell ya?
DDesigned to deceive
C EmSo, tell me who you want me to be
 
 
[Bridge]
DAnd I'll be
C D EmBe my best impression of what you expect from me
D CBut what you don't see is
 
 
[Chorus]
GI spend almost all of my time
DFeeling like I'm falling even further behind
Em CAnd I know I'm so good at seeming
DLike I'm not on the edge of a knife
GI feel like everything I Do is a lie
DAnd all the words just further pull the wool over eyes
Em C DI know I'm no good at being who I Am away from the light
C EmI'm the pretender, what can I tell ya?
G CAnd I'm an imposter, but Hell is a mender
C EmI'm the pretender, what can I tell ya?
DDesigned to deceive
C GSo, tell me who you want me to be
