I'll make believe that I don't miss ya.

I can say I'm glad that we're apart.

But when I wake up, awww, in the mornin',
                 E         B       E

Makin' believe is not so easy..how long 
                B
can I hold it inside?

#3.

I'll make believe that I don't love ya.
E                         B
And I never gave my heart away.
                E                  A
But I know I'll never, aww, be the same,
