            In A Real Love 







G  Em  C  D  (2x)

Verse 1:
G                 Em
I was 18, workin' minimum wage
       C                     D
With a letterman jacket and a chevrolet
          G         Em        C                D
I thought I was cool, yeah, I ruled the school
G                           Em
You were cum laude with the strawberry lips
            C                           D
You had the whole world danglin' at your finger tips
     G           Em              C                 D
Your senior year, and I was your Daddy's worst fear
D                    Am
 We ran off on graduation night
D                                             Am                      
 We thought a couple of left hand rings would make everything all right

Chorus:
       G                         Em
With a little bit of live, little bit of learn
              C                   D
Little bit of watching a few more candles burn, and
G       Em            C       D
Finding out what life was      ooh
       G                         Em
With a little bit of fuss, little bit of fight
              C               D
Little bit of kiss and makin' up all night, and
G       Em     A/G      D             G (repeat intro)
One day wakin' up,      oh, in a real love

Verse 2:
G                 Em
I was 22, working double overtime, 
      C                           D
I was spending dollars and making dimes
G       Em             C              D
We were overdrawn, and barely hanging on
G                  Em 
Then one night you came to me
     C                             D
With tears in your eyes and an EPT and said
G             Em          C           D
"Guess what...yeah, baby, ready or not"
       D                 Am
I just smiled, but I was scared to death
D                                          Am
How am I gonna have a kid when I'm still a kid myself?

Chorus:
       G                         Em
With a little bit of live, little bit of learn
              C                   D
Little bit of watching a few more candles burn, and
G       Em            C       D
Finding out what life was      ooh
       G                         Em
With a little bit of fuss, little bit of fight
              C               D
Little bit of kiss and makin' up all night, and
G      Em      A/G      D             G       Em       A/G 
One day wakin' up,      oh, in a real love               Whoa, in a real love  
A/G              G  A/G         D
 Yeah, it's a real  love.........mmm...           

Chorus:
       G(stop)                   (No Chords)
With a little bit of live, little bit of learn
              C(stop)                          D
Little bit of watching a few more candles burn, and
G       Em            C          D
Finding out what life was,  ooh
       G                         Em
With a little bit of fuss, little bit of fight
              C               D
Little bit of kiss and makin' up all night, and
G      Em      A/G      D             G      Em      A/G
One day wakin' up,      oh, in a real love
