                                                    Even Stevens

[Intro]
BEBE
   B
1.People talking, think I'm all right
  Think I'm doing fine
   E                               B
  Going through the motions of my life
  Go to work now every morning
  Yeah I play the part
  E                            F#
  And hide the contents of my solemn heart

                B
C.But when the sun goes down
           E
  And the moon is high
     F#                                   B
  I can't control the flood of all these tears inside
               B
  And if they only knew
             E
  They'd be so surprised
       F#                                  B
  I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise

2.Keep 'em guessing, keep 'em laughin'
  Build that wall up high
  As long as they don't see the other side
  You've really done it, done a number
  A number on my soul
  But I'll be damned if I'll ever let it show

C.But when the sun goes down
  And the moon is high
  There's no way to hide the truth from me, myself, and I
  Yeah, I wear it well
  Though it ain't my size
  I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise

3.I'm not one to show emotion
  Like some fools I see
  I won't wear my heart out on my sleeve
  I don't miss you, not for a moment
  I'm gonna be okay
  Words of wisdom spoken by the light of day

C.But when the sun goes down
  And the moon is high
  Your memory pulls me under like a string riptide
  I'm still in love with you
  It's all smoke and lights
  I'm juast a good pretender in a great disguise
