"The Pretender" - Foo Fighters (* Bass: ** Bass: )
<intro.>
*
**
<verse 1="">
Keep you in the dark, you know they all, pretend.
*
Keep you in the dark, and so it all, began...
<verse 2="">
Send in your skeletons...Sing as their bones go marchin' in... a-gain.
The need you buried deep...the secrets that you keep are at the rea-dy...
Are you ready?
I'm finished makin' sense...Done pleading ig-nor-ance. That whole............defense.
<pre-chorus>
Spinning infinity, boy.
The wheel is spinnin' me...It's never-ending, never-endin'... Same old story.
x2
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another, one of your plays? You're the pretender...
What if I say I will never surrender?
<pre-chorus>
In time or so I'm told... I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print.. We are not permanent... We're temporary, temporary
Same old story.
Ooooohhhhh
I'm the voice inside your head... You 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 will take you down... Bring you to your knees
So who... are you?
Yeah who... are you?
Yeah who... are you?
Yeah who... are you?
Keep you in the dark, you know they all... pretend.
What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
