G C9 G C9
Never thought that I was weak
D C
Always thought I could get hurt pretty bad
C G C9 G C9
Standing up on my own two feet
G C9 G C9
I always believed that I was free
D C
That I had some sense of integrity
D C G C9 G C9
That would rise above whatever tried to change me
(Chorus)
Em C G
But honey, now I won't wait
Em C G
For something to bring me round and smile
Em C G
Cause that only sticks for a while
D
Then I'm back again
C G C9 G C9
Oh, I'm a master pretender
(Interlude)
G C9 G C9
(Verse)
G C9 G C9
I always knew that I was young
D C G C9 G C9
But with a head held high, and a sharp tongue I could fool 'most anyone
G C9 D
I never expected to be struck
D C G C9 G C9
By the fatal hands of fortune or by sheer bad luck
(Chorus)
Em C G
But honey, now we won't change
Em C G
And memories just rearrange
Em C G
And fall into place
D
So I'm back again
C G C9 G C9
Oh, I'm a master pretender
(Middle8)
C G
Oh the streets of New York City
C G D
Sure look pretty from way up here
C G
And I was headed home
C G D
just found more alone the further I'd go
(Verse)
G C9 G C9
I always thought that you'd be here
D C G C9 G C9
But shit gets fucked up and people just disappear
(Chorus)
Em C G
So honey, now, don't be mad
Em C G
Time has told me it can't be that bad and if it is,
Em C G
well, I'll be goddamned
D
I'll stick around
C G C9 G C9
I'll be your master defender
D
Yeah, I'll stick around
C G C9 G C9
I'll be your master defender
(Outro)
G C9 G C9
