Verse
Gb
Back when we were simple young
Ebm
Always chasing for the sun
Abm Cdim
We were the two best of buds
Gb
Then adolescence came by my way and
Ebm
Love was rushing right through my veins
Abm Cdim
Every time I saw her
[Pre-chorus]
Cb Cbm
And I fell down
Gb
Wasting my thoughts
Cb Cbm Gb
On what ifs and hows
Db
Why now
[Chorus]
Gb Ebm
She don't make this thing easy
Abm Cdim
My hopes are filled to the brim
Gb Ebm
But I know she’ll never see me as
Abm Cdim
Anything more than a friend
Cb Cbm Gb
So I’ll just keep playing pretend
[Verse 2]
Gb
I know I'm usually not one to brag
Ebm
But I'm tryna fix what I lack
Abm Cdim
But she don't notice at all
Gb
I wanna be something more than friends
Ebm
The pair with that happy end
Abm Cdim
But maybe this thing will all blow
[Pre-chorus]
Cb Cbm
So I'm falling down
Gb
Wasting my thoughts
Cb Cbm
On what ifs and hows
Db
What now
[Chorus]
Gb Ebm
She don't make this thing easy
Abm Cdim
My hopes are filled to the brim
Gb Ebm
But I know she’ll never see me as
Abm Cdim
Anything more than a friend
Cbm Cbm Gb
So I’ll just keep playing pretend

[Ending]
Gb Ebm
This thing was never easy
Abm Cdim
My hopes spilled over the brim
Gb Ebm
All I can say now is sorry
Abm Cdim
For bringing us to an end
Cbm Cbm Gb
I should've kept playing pretend
