B
Straight out of some story
you walked in and all your glory
I thought you were perfect for me
A
I was out of my mind
B
Looked like I was winning
it was the best love I'd ever been in
Just when we were beginning
A E
The end you left me behind
A E
and I was looking foward to a happy ending
B E
So much for pretending
Repeat intro
B
I should have known better
than to think of happy ever after
you and me together
A
I was out of my league
B
I kept my heart hidden
now I'm wishin that I didn't
Oh who am I kiddin
A E
you weren't even in trigued
A E
and I was looking foward to a happy ending
B E B
So much for pretending
B A
It could have been beauti ful
F# E
If I'd only met ya
F# E
If I'd only let ya know
B E
What you meant to me
B A
and if I could I would
F# E
give you a demon stration
F# E
about my imagin ation
B
thought it ought to be
B E
so much for pretending
Intro fade
Notes: It's easiest to capo the 2nd fret. I think BW does in the video.
The chords in the refrain are probably wrong. I'd like to see the corrections.
Also, barre chords sound good in the refrain:
B: 799877
A: 577655
F#: xx8676
E: xx6454
