Intro:
Asus4 - Bsus4 - Gsus2    x2
Bsus4 - Asus4
Verse:
D                            F#m              G
We are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees
       D                      F#m  Em7
We are blisters on the earth
D                                  F#m       G
We are not the flowers, we're the strangling weeds
        D      F#m   Em7
In the meadow
    D                               F#m           G
And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves
              D                   F#m   Em7
When we don't want to live alone
    D                     F#m          G
So step into the vacuum, tear off your clothes
       D            F#m   Em7
And be born again
Chorus:
   Asus4
Pretend that you're alone now
    Bsus4        Gsus2
And everything's gone
     Asus4
Just animal reflex
        Bsus4          Gsus2
There's no one looking on
   Asus4
Forget about fashion
   Bsus4          Gsus4
Forget about the law
Asus4
Pretend that you're alone now
Verse:
D                                 F#m           G
I wonder what I'd do, if I could wake up every morning
        D            F#m  Em7
With a clean slate
    D                            F#m               G
I'd burn through the cities, I'd tear through the towns
                D             F#m  Em7
Cos there's no deals to make
          D                     F#m       G
So break out of the cages, the delicate structures
            D               F#m  Em7
We cling to all our lives
        D                         F#m             G
Cos we are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees
              D                 F#m   Em7
When we were trying to fly
Chorus:
   Asus4
Pretend that you're alone now
    Bsus4        Gsus2
And everything's gone
     Asus4
Just primal desire
    Bsus4        Gsus2
No right and no wrong
   Asus4
Forget about the future
   Bsus4     Gsus4
Forget about blame
Asus4                         (Gsus2)
Pretend that you're alone now
Asus4
Pretend that you're alone now

Bridge (SOLO played over):
D      F#m  G           D
She's not  waiting for tomorrow
    F#m         Em          D
And she has no love in her eyes
G  A     F#m                    Em
Oh no, I wanna come down right now

And everything's gone
     Asus4
Just animal reflex
        Bsus4          Gsus2
There's no one looking on
   Asus4
Forget about religion
   Bsus4     Gsus4
Forget about shame
Asus4
Pretend that you're alone now
Chorus:
   Asus4
No numbers in your phone now
         Bsus4        Gsus2
There's nothing going on
     Asus4
Just primal desire
    Bsus4        Gsus2
No right and no wrong
   Asus4
Forget about fashion
   Bsus4     Gsus2
Forget about fame
Asus4                         (Gsus2)
Pretend that you're alone now
Asus4                         (Gsus2)
Pretend that you're alone now
Asus4                         (Gsus2)
Pretend that you're alone now
