Verse:
Am                C
Keep you in the dark
                D     F
You know they all pretend
Am                C
Keep you in the dark
            D   F
And so it all began
Am
Send in your skeletons
C                                D    F
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
Am
The need you buried deep
C                               D
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
F
Are you ready?
Am
Iʼm finished making sense
C
Done pleading ignorance
        D   F
That whole defense
Am
Spinning infinity, boy
C
The wheel is spinning me
       D
Itʼs never-ending, never-ending
F
Same old story

Chorus:
Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D
What if I say Iʼm not just another one of your plays?
Youʼre the pretender
F
What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D
What if I say Iʼm not just another one of your plays?
Youʼre the pretender
F
What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Verse:
Am
In time or so iʼm told
C                          D           F
Iʼm just another soul for sale... oh, well
Am
The page is out of print
C
We are not permanent
D
Weʼre temporary, temporary
F
Same old story

Chorus:
Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D
What if I say Iʼm not just another one of your plays?
Youʼre the pretender
F
What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D
What if I say Iʼm not just another one of your plays?
Youʼre the pretender
F
What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Verse:
Am
Iʼm the voice inside your head
C
You refuse to hear
Am
Iʼm the face that you have to face
C
Mirrored in your stare
Am
Iʼm whatʼs left, Iʼm whatʼs right
C
Iʼm the enemy
Am
Iʼm the hand that will take you down
C
Bring you to your knees
D
So who are you?
F
Yeah, who are you?
D
Yeah, who are you?
F
Yeah, who are you?
Am                C
Keep you in the dark
               D     F
You know they all pretend

Chorus:
 Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D
What if I say Iʼm not just another one of your plays?
Youʼre the pretender
F
What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D
What if I say Iʼm not just another one of your plays?
Youʼre the pretender
F
What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?
C                                   D

What if I say that Iʼll never surrender?

Am
What if I say Iʼm not like the others?

Yeah, who are you?
D               F
Yeah, who are you?

Am
