G-D-Em-C (2x) G D
1. I wish that life
was like it is in the movies,
Em 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.

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.
+ CHORUS
G D
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.

God knows that I'd never dream in the end it would fail. 'Cause

G D
This is real life, this is real love,

from,
