[Verse]
Am 
Keep you in the dark 
               F#m7-5   Fmaj 
You know they all pretend 
Am 
Keep you in the dark 
         F#m7-5   Fmaj 
And so it all began 
Am 
Send in your skeletons 
                                 D/F#    F 
Sing as their bones go marching in... again 
Am 
The need you buried deep 
                               D/F# 
The secrets that you keep are ever ready 
F              G 
Are you ready? 
Am 
I'm finished making sense 
  
Done pleading ignorance 
        D/F#         F   G 
That whole ,  defense 
Am 
Spinning infinity, boy 
  
The wheel is spinning me 
       D/F#         F         G 
It's never-ending, never-ending 
 D 
 Same old story
[Chorus]
Am 
What if I say I'm not like the others? 
                                     D/F# 
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? 
  
You're the pretender 
F 
What if I say that I'll never surrender?  
Am 
What if I say I'm not like the others? 
                                   D/F# 
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? 
  
You're the pretender 
F 
What if I say that I'll never surrender?
[Verse]
Am 
In time or so i'm told 
                           D/F#           F  G 
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well 
Am 
The page is out of print 
  
We are not permanent 
      D/F#          F          G 
We're tem-po-rary, tem-po-rary 
D 
Same old story
[Chorus]
Am 
What if I say I'm not like the others? 
                                     D/F# 
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? 
  
You're the pretender 
F 
What if I say that I'll never surrender?  
Am 
What if I say I'm not like the others? 
                                   D/F# 
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? 
  
You're the pretender 
F                                           D 
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

A5 
I'm the voice inside your head 
A5 
You refuse to hear 
A5 
I'm the face that you have to face

Mirrored in your stare

I'm what's left, I'm what's right 
A5 
I'm the enemy 
A5 
I'm the hand that will take you down 
A5 
Bring you to your knees
