Here In The Real World

G A D G D

[Verse 1]

D             G
Cowboys don't cry,
A               D
And heroes don't die.
           G
Good always wins
A           D
Again and again.
              G       A
And love is a sweet dream
                  D
That always comes true
                      G
Oh, if life were like the movies,
A           D     G/D
I'd never be blue.

[Chorus]

D               G
But here in the real world,
                     D
It's not that easy at all,
                      A   A7
Cause when hearts get broken,
                     D
It's real tears that fall.
                    G
And darlin', it's sad but true,
                       D
But the one thing I've learned from you,
                    Em      D/F#    G
Is how the boy don't always get the girl,
A                G
Here in the real world.

[Verse 2]

D             G
I gave you my love,
  A             D
But that wasn't enough,
             G
To hold your heart
  A           D
When times got rough.
               G           A
And tonight on that silver screen,
                   D
It'll end like it should,
                  G
Two lovers will make it through
A               D     G/D
Like I hoped we would.

[Chorus]

D               G
But here in the real world,
                     D
It's not that easy at all,
                      A   A7
Cause when hearts get broken,
                     D
It's real tears that fall.
                    G
And darlin', it's sad but true,
                       D
But the one thing I've learned from you,
                    Em      D/F#    G
Is how the boy don't always get the girl,
A                G
Here in the real world.

[Outro]

D                Em      D/F#     G
No, the boy don't always get the girl

  A          G         D A D
Here in the real world.
