G  C Bm D

[Verse 1]
     G     Bm    Em      G
I've never been alone before
   C        D       Em   G
It makes me feel so insecure
        C       D     G    D
There's nowhere I can turn
        G      Bm    Em     G
There's people in my public life
     C       D    Em         G
That can not even love their wife
    C            D      G      D
But soon they've got to learn

[Chorus]
         G    C      D
But it's only make believe
       Em      A7   D
Yes to give is to receive
    G         Am        Bm   C  Cm
But some just laugh and leave
Cm       G    C      D     G
For it's only make believe me
  G
Believe me
  Em
Believe me
  C
Believe me
  D
Believe me

[Verse 2]
  G        Bm    Em        G
I lost the one I could not reach
    C    D    Em     G
Not even in a worded speech
   C       D        G    D
It cost my peace of mind
   G       Bm     Em     G
So one and on and in and out
  C         D        Em         G
I start and stop and stand and shout
  C        D     G    D
I left her far behind

[Chorus]
         G    C      D
But it's only make believe
       Em      A7   D
Yes to give is to receive
    G         Am        Bm   C  Cm
But some just laugh and leave
Cm       G    C      D     G
For it's only make believe me
  G
Believe me
  Em
Believe me
  C
Believe me
  D
Believe me
      G
Oh, believe me
  Em
Believe me
      C
Oh, believe me
  D
Believe me
        G
Believe me
