IN THE REAL WORLD  
Standard Tuning - No Capo 

Am
In dreams we do so many things
                             F
We set aside the rules we know
Am
And fly the world so high
                        F
In great and shining rings

Dm              G7                   C
If only we could always live in dreams
Dm                           G7                    
If only we could make of life
 Dm                    G7
What, in dreams, it seems


C
But in the real world
                     Am
We must say our goodbyes
                  F         Em
No matter if the love will live
 F               G7
It will never die

C
In the real world
                                Am
There are things that we cant change
                    F
And endings come to us
 Em             Fmaj7       E7
In ways that we cant rearrange

    Am                    F
I love you, and you love me
    F                       Em7
But sometimes we must let it be
         F
In the real world
        Am
In the real world


Bridge – Am - F - G


Am
When we were dreaming heart to heart
                                    F 
I wish that we had stayed right there
Am
For when the dreamers do awake
                     F
The dreams do disappear



Dm                      G7           C
If only we could always live in dreams
Dm                           G7                    
If only we could make of life
 Dm                          G7
What, in dreams, it seems


  C
In the real world

                                 Am
There are things that we cant change
                     F
And endings come to us

  Em           Fmaj7        E7
In ways that we cant rearrange

  Am                      F
I love you, and you love me

    F                       Em7
But sometimes we must let it be
       F
In the real world
       C
In the real world
