i know this is 100% correct; i’ve played it with the song and it sounds extremely accurate .
standard tuning , no capo
intro :
A E F# E ( x2 )
verse :
A E
once in a while i act like a child
F# E
to feel like a kid again
D A E F# E
it gets like a prison in the body i’m living in
A
cause everyone’s watching
E
and quick to start talking
F# E
i’m losing my innocence
D A E
wish i were a little girl without the weight of the world
chorus :
A E F#
it would be nice to start over again
E A
before we were men
E F#
i’ve give my bend
E
lets play pretend
interlude :
A E F# E
verse :
A
remember the times
E
we had soda for wine
F# E
and got by on gratitude
D
the worst they could do to you
A E
was check your attitude
A
yeah , when fights were for fun
E
we had water for guns
F# E
and a place we could call our own
D
how we lost hold of that
A E
i guess i’ll never know
chorus :
A E F#
it would be nice to start over again
E A
before we were men
E F#
i’ve give my bend
E A
lets play pretend
E F#
and when it’s the end
E A
our lives will make sense
E F#
we’ll love , we’ll bend
E A E
let’s play pretend
F# E A E F# E
lets play pretend
A
it’s not gonna be long
E
before we’re all gone
F# E
with nothing to show for them
D
stop taking lives , come on
A E
lets all grow up again
