Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

  [A6/9] (4x)

 As I bask in the glow of a just-lit fire

 feeling the warmth as the flame grows higher

  [A6/9]

 I think it's true that nothing is really new under the sun

 watching a new love grow from old love's embers

 yesterday's gone but today remembers

 doesn't it seem to come down the same for everyone?

 Only love is real, everything else illusion

 adding to the confusion of the way we connive at being alive

 tracing a line till we can define

 the thing that allows us to feel

 only love is real, only love is real.

  [A6/9] (4x)

 Childhood dreams like muddy waters

 flowing through me to my son and daughters

  [A6/9]

 everything I ever thought is confirmed as truth to me

 even as I see the way that I want to go now

 still I wish I had known twhat I know now

 maybe I could have spared you giving your youth to me.

 Only love is real, everything else illusion

 adding to the confusion of the way we contrive to just stay alive

 tracing a line till we can define

 the thing that allows us to feel

 only love is real, only love is real,

 only love is real, only love is real.
