  			Intro: G D Em C (2X)
                 G                          D 
1.  I wish that life was like it is in the movies,
                E                    C
    'cause the hero always gets his way.
               G                        D
    No matter how hard it gets on that dark, lonely road,
            Em                           C
    at the end he's got a smile on his face.
                     G                 D
    But when they threw me out to the lions,
            F                             C
    no one saved me as I fell from your grace.
                 G                      D
    And no one wrote me new lines for what I said wrong,
                F                      C
    and what I did wrong I could not erase.
         G                  D
This is real life, this is real love,
         Em                   C
this is real pain, that much I'm sure of.
           G                     D            C                 D
These are real tears, these are real fears inside that I can't hide
     - C  ~ ~                G                             D
2.               I wish that I could be a white knight in armor,
             Em                           C
    with an army just to bring you back home.
              G                                D
    But I'll admit I'm scared of dialing your number,
                 Em                         C
    and someone else is gonna answer the phone.
     G                       D
    Why can't it be like it is on TV,
              F                       C
    when the orchestra plays and you come back to me.

    This is real life, this is real love,
               Em                     C
    these are real wounds that I'm bleeding from,
           Am               D
    and I realize this is real.
F                          Am               C         G
    I always thought that our love was a story book tale.
     F              C          Am    - C         D            D7
    God knows that I'd never dream      in the end it would fail. 'Cause
