Real Life

Dm Bb F


[Verse 1]
       Dm     Bb            
In the cab, a hatchback, deux 
     F
chevaux
        Dm        Bb        
Playing billiards down at the 
        F
bungalow
         Dm              Bb       
She said Kelly's pool party was a 
        F
no, no, no
                      Dm       
I was wishing I could push fast 
    Bb                     F
forward, the seconds were passing by
               Dm      Bb    
Talking to the fortune teller, 
            F
dialing a psychic line
          Dm              Bb      
Oh, I was floating like a feather 
       F
in the wind
            Dm             Bb     
And left me waiting for my real 
        F
life to begin


[Chorus]
                      Dm  B  F
For my real life to begin
                      Dm  B  F
For my real life to begin
                      Dm  B  F
For my real life to begin
Dm         Bb
Real life, real life

For my real life to begin


[Verse 2]
    Dm        Bb                F
The board was beat down, busted up
         Dm             Bb        
Drinking orange Jarrito from a 
   F
paper cup
Continues after the ad
             Dm       Bb          
She said, “I like you but I never 
        F
fell in love”
          Dm              Bb      
Oh, I was floating like a feather 
       F
in the wind
            Dm              Bb    
And another road would come 
        F
winding to an end
              Dm              
And the magic eight ball read, 
  Bb         F
"Hazy, try again"
            Dm             Bb     
And left me waiting for my real 
        F
life to begin


[Chorus]
                      Dm  B  F
For my real life to begin
                      Dm  B  F
For my real life to begin
                      Dm  B  F
For my real life to begin
Dm         Bb
Real life, real life
F
Real life

For my real life to begin
Dm         Bb
Real life, real life
F
Real life

For my real life to begin
Dm         Bb
Real life, real life
F

Dm Bb F (2x)

[Bridge]
Dm                        Bb      
Wishing I could push fast forward 
F
strike like a lightning bolt
Dm                          Bb   
I would say a prayer when I went 
             F
to bed, wake up in a cloud of smoke
