[Verse]
(no chord)
Well I went and lost her
(no chord)
To the great imposter
                        Dm
I stood and watched her fall
                     F      Dm
Couldn't help her at all


[Bridge]
   A      Dm            A      Dm
Poetry so sweet has her at his feet
           Bb
She thinks she's the one 
           C
But he has just begun


[Chorus]
                          Dm        
All her friends they just watch her 
Bb         C                F
  For they know the great imposter


[Verse]
                         F
Don't she know he's on a stage
Bb         C                F
  It's not real it's just a play
                     Dm
And he's playing the part
                          F      Dm
That is soon to break her heart


[Bridge]
   A         Dm             A   Dm
Oh can't she see tomorrow's misery
            Bb
Soon she'll learn her fate
            C
But it will be too late


[Chorus]
                          Dm        
All her friends they just watch her 
Bb         C                F
  For they know the great imposter


[Verse] (part)
         Dm                    F    Dm
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh


[Bridge]
   A      Dm            A      Dm
Poetry so sweet has her at his feet
           Bb
She thinks she's the one 
           C
But he has just begun


[Chorus] (+ outro)
                          Dm        
All her friends they just watch her 
Bb         C                F
  For they know the great imposter
Bb          C                F
  And she's soon to join the roster
Bb         C                F
  They all know the great imposter
Bb          C                F
  And she's soon to join the roster
Bb         C                F
  For they know the great imposter
