'Cause if it happens once, you know it happens twice 
F (133211@1)                                         G (320003@1)                   Am (x02210@1)If there's a chance then I know I've got to try

{Intermediate:} 
 
G (320003@1)                       F (133211@1)I'm not afraid to fall a hundred times 
        G (320003@1)                 F (133211@1)And I'll believe in all your silly lies 
      G (320003@1)                     F (133211@1)I'd like to think that I  could change your mind 
          G (320003@1)                  Am (x02210@1)                                      F (133211@1)Don't say that I am blind, I know all about your kind 
 
He's a pretender, yeah you meet him every day 
He's a pretender, that fish that got away 
He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love 
 
I like the way he moved across the floor 
And when he danced with me I knew he wanted more 
But in the dark things happened much too fast 
I should've stopped him then, I knew it wouldn't last 
 
{Chorus} 
{intermediate} 
 
He's a pretender, yeah you meet him every day 
He's a pretender, that fish that got away 
He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love
