Lets Pretend

Verse 1:

I can t sleep nights

Wishing you were here beside me

Can t help feelin

That s the way it ought to be

You know we could run (run, run away)
/
But I couldn t bear to hear the things they d say, oh no
Chorus:
/
Baby, let s pretend that tonight could live forever
/
If we close our eyes and believe it might come true
/
Baby, let s pretend we could always {1,4: be 2,3: live} together

But for now just let me spend the night with you
{1: Cadd9 /D; to verse 2}
{2: to bridge}
{3, 4: Cadd9 /D; repeat}
Verse 2:
Somehow, someday
Things are gonna be so different
Don t cry, some way
I promise it ll be all right
So now that we re all alone
I couldn t bear to leave to take you home, oh no
{repeat Chorus}
Bridge:

So take me now, my love can t wait

We re almost there now, darlin , darlin

Hold me (hold me), hold me (hold me)

Ho-oh-old me
{repeat Chorus to end; start to fade 2nd time}
