Real

Intro: A A/G# x4

A                         D
I think it's time that we move ahead
       E                        A
To the place we never wanted to go
A                   D
There's no sense in looking back
        E             A (Stop) A/G#
Let the final credits roll
A                  D
I could never live up to
    E                  A
The man that's in your head
A                         D
You want the guy from the notebook
    E             A
But you got me instead

    D               Dm           (Stop)
But you'll be sorry when I'm gone

                   D       A
I never said I was peeeeeerfect
                   E           A
Who the hell wants perfect anyway?
                   D     A
Sometimes I really f*ck up
           E                 A
But baby I learn from my mistakes
                 D                    A
And I don’t know what I'm supposed to be
           D          A
All that I ever am is me
         B                              D
And I'll never gonna change, here's the deal
                      D     A     E
I'm just trying to be real, real, real
                       D      A     E
I'm just trying to be real, real, real

I never was the hip kid
I always use words like hip
Judas Priest on my walkman
When culture club was the shit (I tumble for you)
I drive a ‘91 Volvo
The a/c still works fine
I'm happy with my Miller Lite
While everyone's drinking wine

'Cause it's less spilling, it tastes great

I never said I was perfect
Who the hell wants perfect anyway?
Sometimes I really f*ck up
But baby I learn from my mistakes
And I don’t know what I'm supposed to be
All that I ever am is me
And I'll never gonna change, here's the deal
I'm just trying to be real, real, real
I'm just trying to be real, real, real

E                 A                  D                 Bm
You can have your gluten free pizza, I've got taco bell
([?])
E                A
You can try your best to change me
D                   Dm
I just gotta be myself

I never said I was perfect
Who the hell wants perfect anyway?
Sometimes I really f*ck up
Baby I learn from my mistakes
And I don’t know what I'm supposed to be
All that I ever am is me
And I'll never gonna change, here's the deal
(Never gonna change)

I never said I was perfect
Who the hell wants perfect anyway?
Sometimes I really f*ck up
But baby I learn from my mistakes
And I don’t know what I'm supposed to be
All that I ever am is me
And I'll never gonna change, here's the deal
I'm just trying to be real, real, real
I'm just trying to be real, real, real
