Tom:

Intro

Oh yes, I'm the Great Pretender,

Pretending I'm doing well.

My need is such, I pretend too much,

I'm lonely but no one can tell

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender,

Adrift in a world of my own

I play the game, but to my real shame

You've left me to dream all alone.

Too real is this feeling of make believe,

Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender

Just lauging and gay like a clown

I seem to be, what I'm not, you see,

I'm wearing my heart like a crown,

Pretending that you're still around

Too real when I fell what my heart can't conceal

(everything moves up 1/2 step)

Oh yes, I'm the great pretender

Just lauging and gay like a clown

I seem to be, what I'm not, you see,

I'm wearing my heart like a crown,

Pretending that you're...

Pretending that your're.... still around...
