Real Life
A F#m D E
I was young, he was old, we both were the same age
A F#m D E
Everyday playing fetch, shakin’ hands he’d lick my face
Bm E A E F#m
And I was unaware the day would come
Bm E A E
And when he died was the first time I knew what real pain was…
(chorus)
A E F#m D
And I never was the same again
A E F#m D
From that moment on real life began
A F#m D E
Senior high, girlfriends, football games, graduation
A F#m D E
Summer break spent my time filling out applications
Bm E A E F#m
A few superficial years went by they were all a blur
Bm E A E
And in the most unlikely situation there you were, yeah…
(chorus)
A E F#m D
And I never was the same again
A E F#m D
From that moment on real life began…
A E F#m D / A E F#m D
With you…
A F#m D E
By your side scared to death felt the pain you were fightin’
A F#m D E
Placed my palm on your head spoke your name just keep tryin’
Bm E A E F#m
And then you closed your eyes and took one last breath
Bm E A E
And when it was over you looked up laid our baby across your breast…
