E G#m
E G#m F# B
[Verse 1]
E G#m
And I remember
E G#m
the great pretender
E G#m F# B
as she was dressed in that wicked little gown
E G#m
As she would enter
E G#m F# B
with the smell of new rain and all those tiny little sounds
E G#m
E G#m F# B
[Verse 2]
E G#m
And I remember
E G#m
the great pretender
E G#m F# B
as she would enter and leave without a trace
E G#m
Without a member,
E G#m F# B
holy December and empty outta space
[Chorus]
B E F# G#m
I promised myself again I will not give my heart to the sea
B E F# E B
I won't lose my soul again I will keep it in the happiest moun-tain
E G#m
E G#m F# B
[Verse 3]
E G#m
From this hotel room
E G#m
the night is silent,
E G#m F# B
but my beat is thunder and my thoughts are getting weak
E G#m
Now I remember
E G#m
the great pretender
E G#m F# B
Yes, I remember but am trying to forget
[Chorus]
B E F# G#m
I promised myself again I will not give my heart to the sea
B E F# E B
I won't lose my soul again I will keep it in the happiest moun-tain
F# E B
I will keep it in the happiest moun-tain
