THAT'S REAL (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-----------------------------------
[Actually in F, and I suspect MCC plays it in C with a capo on 5,
 so I've written the chords in C.]
[Each chord is one measure.]

Am  Em  F   G    Am  Em  F   G
[intro]

Am                Em               F           G
  I'm not made of stone, I'm not made of glass
Am           Em    F       G
  I've been alone, everyone has
F                    Em             F                 Em
  I've learned to forgive what I'm not
              Em                  F              Em            F     G
I just try to live with what I've got; Maybe I've got what you need

            C              C/E
If you need something that not only feels right
F(9)               G
  Something that's based on a real life
C                  C/E               F          G
  One thing that's worth every page of the deal

F              Em                    F
  Not some old line, or rose-colored dream
               Em                    F
Not some other time, you know what I mean
                     Em                  F     G
When I tell you that this is all that it seems
           Am   Em   F   G     Am   Em   F   G
And that's real

How far can I crawl out on this limb
There's so far to fall, and here comes the wind
There's so much to lose, but love doesn't wait
So I'll be a fool who found out too late
But I've been a fool for far lesser things

And I want something that not only feels right
Something that's based on a real life
One thing that's worth every page of the deal

Not some old line, or rose-colored dream
Not some other time, you know what I mean
When I tell you that this is all that it seems
And that's real

Not some old line or rose-colored dream
Not some other time, you know what I mean
When I tell you that I'm, I'm all that I seem
           Am     Em            F    G
And that's real      And that's real
           Am     Em            F    G
And that's real      And that's real
C   C/E   F   G    C   C/E   F   G    Am.
[instrumental]
