[Intro]

G | C | G 

[Verse  1]
---------------------
C             G
 I'm going to rent myself a house
                    C
In the shade of the freeway
             G
I'm going to pack my lunch in the morning
          D
And go to work each day
C             G
 And when the evening rolls around
C          G                     C
 I'll go on home and lay my body down
             G                             D
And when the morning light comes streaming in
                       C
I'll get up and do it again
 G
Amen
Say it again
C
 Amen

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G          G
 I want to know what became of the changes
              C
We waited for love to bring
          G
Were they only the fitful dreams
                 D
Of some greater awakening
C           G
 I've been aware of the time going by
C                G
 They say in the end it's the wink of an eye
C             G                             D
 And when the morning light comes streaming in
                         C
You'll get up and do it again
 G
Amen
C G                   D
   Caught between the longing for love

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        C                            Bm
And the struggle for the legal tender
Bm7          C
   Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
        Em
And the junk man pounds his fender
          C                     G
Where the veterans dream of the fight
           Bm
Fast asleep  at the traffic light
Em        Em/A              Esus4/G
  And the children solemnly wait   
                  D/G
For the ice cream vendor

[Post-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Em             C
  Out into the cool of the evening
D
 Strolls the Pretender
Em              C
  He knows that all his hopes and dreams
D          G
 Begin and end there

[Bridge]
---------------------
G C
   Ah the laughter of the lovers
As they run through the night
G C
   Leaving nothing for the others
                      Em
But to choose off and fight
B/D#                G
    And tear at the world with all their might
C               Bm
 While the ships  bearing their dreams
Em                 Dsus4
  Sail out of sight

[Verse  3]
---------------------
D             G
 I'm going to find myself a girl
                     C
Who can show me what laughter means
          G
And we'll fill in the missing colors
               D
In each other's paintbynumber dreams
C               G                    C
 And then we'll put out dark glasses on
              G                        C
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
             G                             D
And when the morning light comes streaming in
                        C
We'll get up and do it again
G
 Get it up again
C G                  D
   I'm going to be a happy idiot

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
    C                            Bm
And struggle for the legal tender
Bm7          C
   Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
       Em
To the heart and the soul of the spender
           C                G
And believe in whatever may lie
               Bm
In those things  that money can buy
Em            Em/A Esus4/G                  D/G
  Though true love could  have been a contender
Em        C
  Are you there?

[Post-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
      D
Say a prayer for the pretender
Em            C
  Who started out so young and strong
D                 G
 Only to surrender

[Outro]
---------------------
G
 Say a prayer for the pretender
C G
   Are you there for the pretender?
C G
   Say a prayer for the pretender
C G                                    C
   Oh, are you there for the pretender?

[Fade Out]
---------------------
G
 Are you prepared for the pretender?
