Josie And The Pussycats

Pretend To Be Nice

by Josie And The Pussycats
Josie And The Pussycats

Biography:

Josie and the Pussycats are a fictitious rock band, created in 1969 by Dan DeCarlo for an Archie Comics publication of the same name. The three characters who form the band include leader Josie McCoy (vocals, guitar), Valerie Brown (vocals, bass, tambourine), and Melody Valentine (vocals, drums).

"Josie and the Pussycats" evolved from DeCarlo's "She's Josie" comic, first published by Archie in 1963. The change in format came about as a result of the success of The Archies in the books, on television, and on the pop charts.

You'll notice I put the chords above the vowel sounds in the chorus rather than at the beginnings of words. This was intentional because the vocals are slightly syncopated during that part.

Verse 1:
C
Well he looks at me with those innocent eyes
Am
And says it looks like you're wearing some kind of disguise
E
Because your hair sticks up your shoes are untied
Bb F Bb F
I hope that you got that shirt at half price

C
And every word I say falls flat on the floor
Am
I try to tell a joke he's heard it before
E
And I don't think that I can take it no more
Bb F Bb F
He's driving me right out of my front door


Chorus:
C G E F
Why do you do what you do to me baby
C G E F
Shaking my confidence driving me crazy
C G E F
You know if I could I'd do anything for you
G
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you

C G F
Can't you just pretend to be nice
C G F
Could you at least pretend to be nice
C G F
If you could just pretend to be nice
G
Well everything in my life would be alright


Break:
C G
Ooh whee ooh whee Ooh whee ooh whee
E F
Ooh whee ooh hooooooooo
C G
Ooh whee ooh whee Ooh whee ooh whee
E F
Ooh whee ooh hooooooooo
C G
Ooh whee ooh whee Ooh whee ooh whee
E F C
Ooh whee ooh hooooooooo hooooooooo


Verse 2:
C
And I try so hard just to figure him out
Am
But he won't tell me what he's thinking about
E
And then he falls asleep on the living room couch
Bb F Bb F
With his sunglasses on and his tongue hanging out

C
And then he disappears for a week at a time
Am
And then he shows up just like everything's fine
E
I don't get what goes on in his mind
Bb F Bb F
But I'm tired of hearing the same stupid lines


Chorus:
C G E F
Why do you do what you do to me baby
C G E F
Shaking my confidence driving me crazy
C G E F
You know if I could I'd do anything for you
G
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you

C G F
But can't you just pretend to be nice
C G F
Could you at least pretend to be nice
C G F
If you could just pretend to be nice
G
Everything in my life would be alright


Break:
C G
Ooh whee ooh whee Ooh whee ooh whee
E F
Ooh whee ooh hooooooooo
C G
Ooh whee ooh whee Ooh whee ooh whee
E F
Ooh whee ooh hooooooooo
C G
Ooh whee ooh whee Ooh whee ooh whee
E F C
Ooh whee ooh hooooooooo hooooooooo
