Chorus:
C G C
Lyin' in his arms again
F C
Sayin' things that I don't mean
G Am
Makin' love while I pretend
D G
You're the one who's holdin' me
C G C
How it hurts to think I'd lie
F C
To the one who thinks the world of me
F
So tonight I'll let him hold me
C F
And tell him I love him
C G C
Lyin' in his arms again
Dm G
My heart is aching, filled with pain
C
'Cause tonight I meant to tell him
F G
But I put it off again
Dm G
Oh I don't mean to hurt his pride
F Eb
'Cause he has always been to me
D# Dm
A lover & a friend to me
F G
Oh I just couldn't bear to see him cry, but I'm...
Chorus
It won't be long now till I tell the truth
I'm gonna get my courage up & tell him about you
This ring I'm wearin', it fits so tight
Oh you know it's chokin' me
I wish that it would set me free
Or I'll have to play pretend again tonight
Chorus
