The Pretender by Jake Wesley Rogers
The Pretender
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Verse 1]
D
He picked me from my parents home
G A E Bm
He took me to the latest showing of a movie
D
I don't remember well
G
'Cause all I see is him
A
Rugged in the wind
D
He lit me up
Rewrote my name
G A
He smoked his weed and I hesitated
Bm D
Oh Heavenly Father, if I sin
G A
Will you ever look at me the same again?
[Chorus]
G A
He was champagne, I was underaged
D G
Drinking on a bender
G A D
It was better being the pretender
G A
[Verse 2]
D
Lightning storm on my sweet sixteen
G A
I locked my door, told him my teenage dreams
Bm A D
And we embraced like the sand and the sea
G A
I handed over contraband parts of me
Bm D
After that, well I'm sure you know
G
He never called again
A
His headlights never showed
Bm D
The rest, I guess is history
G
All I see is him
A
Rugged in the wind
[Chorus]
G A
He was champagne, I was underaged
D A G
Drinking on a bender
A D G
It was better than being the pretender
[Bridge]
A G A
Hallelujah, he loves me
G A
Hallelujah, he wants me
Bm D G A
He wants me not, not, oh
[Verse 3]
D
He was champagne
A
I was enraged
D A G
Cussing like a sailor
A Bm A
So much harder feeling like a failure
G
I was foolish
A D
But he was the pretender
G A D
