Like I said, the rhythm isn't correct in here, just listen to the song and work it out,
it's easy. If anything is wrong, email me and I'll fix it. Thanks.
Lyrics:
when i pretend
everything is what i want it to be
i look exactly like what you had always wanted to see
when i pretend
i can forget about the criminal i am
stealing second after second just cause i know i can / but
i can't pretend this is the way it will stay / i'm just
trying to bend the truth
i can't pretend i'm who you want me to be
so i'm
lying my way from you
[no / no turning back now]
i wanna be pushed aside
so let me go
[no / no turning back now]
let me take back my life
i'd rather be all alone
[no turning back now]
anywhere on my own
cause i can see
[no / no turning back now]
the very worst part of you
is me
i remember what they taught to me
remember condescending talk of who i ought to be
remember listening to all of that and this again
so i pretended up a person who was fitting in
and now you think this person really is me and i'm
[trying to bend the truth]
but the more i push
the more i'm pulling away
'cause i'm
lying my way from you
this isn't what i wanted to be
i never thought that what i said
would have you running from me
like this
the very worst part of you
the very worst part of you
is me
Great job, but the the high-pitched part of the chorus is inaccurate. It's split 5th and 3rd string, like the parts in Somewhere I Belong and Faint.
ohh,thats the best version yet!
This is a good tab, however this song is actually played in C# according to the book and starts palm muted on 2nd fret, then open. This is a good tab though, it sounds right.
