Intro: C
C
I love real things built to last
                                F
Hardwood floors and stone fireplaces
                         C
And looking back on the past

C
Ice cold beer, fish that fight
Wise, old bucks
                F
And old timer's   tellin' lies
      C
Fireflies

  G
Rainy days, I love them, I always have
              F
Screened in porches, my old, straw hat
 G                                  C
Smell of dogwoods, early signs of spring
 
Real things

C
I love real things like a hard days work
                                      F
Sinkin' my hands in fresh plowed dirt
                       C
And lovin' someone so much it hurts

C
New strings on an old guitar
Moonshine in a mason jar
     F                                         C
And just feelin' alive, at peace with who you are

 G
Real things, I love 'em, I always have
Like grandma's kitchen
               C
And grandpa's laugh
  G                                    F
Stealin' that first kiss on the front porch swing
       C     G
Real things

        Am                 F              C 
It's a real things, that I come back to every year
       Am            F                 G       C 
Like Christmas time    with those that I hold dear
               Am
When it's the real things
      F         C             F    C
The truth rings so loud and clear
                    G
For those with ears    to hear

        C
I want real things like I love you
                                    F
Or an amen, from the very last pew
                    C
And I miss you dad
C
Son, I miss you too

       G
Real things, I love them, I always have
                   F
Like the kinfolk shoes on a welcome mat
                 G                  F
Sunday morning,    hearing my mama sing
       C        F          C           F-C
Real things, I love those real things
C
Real things
