The Pretender (ver 3) by Jackson Browne
G C x2
G C
I'm gonna rent myself a house in the shade of the freeway
G D C
Gonna pack my lunch in the morning, and go to work each day
G C
And when the evening rolls around
G C
I'll go on home and lay my body down
G D
And when the mornin’ light comes streamin’ in
C G/B D/A G
I'll get up and do it again, A - men
C G/B D/A G
Say it again, A - men
G C
I want to know what became of the changes, we waited for love to bring
G D C
Were they only the fitful dreams of some greater awakening
G C
I've been aware of the time going by
G C
They say in the end it's the wink of an eye
G D
And when the mornin’ light comes streamin’ in
C G/B D/A G C G/B D/A G
I'll get up and do it again, A - men
D C Em/B B7
Caught… between the longing for love and the struggle for the legal tender
C Em
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring and the junkman pounds his fender
C G B7 Em
Where the veterans dream of the fight, fast asleep at the traffic light
A A7 D Em - D
And the children solemnly wait for the ice cream vendor
C D Em
Out into the cool of the evening, strolls the pretender
C D G [1-BAR RIFF] G
He knows that all his hopes and dreams, begin and end there
C G
Ah the lovers as they run through the night
C Em D7/D#
Leaving nothing but to choose off and fight
G/D C
And tear at the world with all their might
G/B Em D
While the ships bearing their dreams sail out of sight
G C
I'm gonna find myself a girl who can show me what laughter means
G D C
And we'll fill in the missing colors in each others’ paint-by-number dreams
G C
And then we'll put our dark glasses on
G C
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
G D
And when the mornin’ light comes streamin’ in
C G/B D/A G C G/B D/A G
We'll get up and do it again, Get it up again
D C Em/B B7
I'm gonna be a happy idiot, and struggle for the legal tender
C
Where the ads take aim, and lay their claim
Em
To the heart and the soul of the spender
C G B7 Em
And believe in whatever may lie, in those things that money can buy
A A7 D Em - D
Though true love could have been a contender
C D Em
Are you there, say a prayer for the pretender
C D G [1-BAR RIFF]
Who started out so young and strong, only to surrender
G C
Say a prayer for the pretender
G C
Are you there for the pretender
G C
Say a prayer for the pretender
G C
Are you there for the pretender
G C
Are you prepared for the pretender
