      "Pretend We're Dead" - L7
Bricks Are Heavy, 1992

[Intro]

B E A F#
(x8)


[Verse 1]

B      E                A     F#
 What's up with what's going down?
B          E         A     F#
 In every city, in every town
B           E    A       F#
 Cramping styles is the plan
B               E                A    F#
 They've got us in the palm of every hand


[Chorus]

           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead
           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead
                 B             E   A   F#
 They can't hear a word we've said
           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead

B E A                 F#
    Come on, come on, come on, come on
(x4)


[Verse 2]

B         E               A   F#
 Turn the tables with our unity
B                E         A     F#
 They're neither moral nor majority
B            E         A      F#
 Wake up and smell the coffee
B            E     A       F#
 Or just say no to individuality


[Chorus]

           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead (Pretend that we're dead)
           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead (Pretend that we're dead)
                 B             E   A   F#
 They can't hear a word we've said (Pretend that we're dead)
           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead


N.C.
Come on, come on, come on, come on
(x4)


[Chorus]

           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead (Pretend that we're dead)
           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead (Pretend that we're dead)
                 B             E   A   F#
 They can't hear a word we've said (Pretend that we're dead)
           B                   E   A   F#
 When we pretend that we're dead


[Outro]

B E A F#
Dead
Dead
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Pretend that we're dead
