Intro: Dm Am A# A# Dm Dm Dm Dm

Em               Em
  Love, let me sleep tonight
             D  A G C  Bm
On your couch
Em                               Em
  And remember the smell of the fabric
                      D  A G C  Bm
Of your simple city dress

Chorus:
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real
C                 D   Em    Em    D  A G C  Bm
  Oh... that was so real



Em
  We walked around til
     Em                       D  A G C  Bm
The moon got full like a plate
Em
  And the wind blew an invocation
Em                             D  A G C  Bm
  And I fell asleep at the gate
Em                             Em
  And I never stepped on the cracks
                                  D  A G C  Bm
Cause I thought I'd hurt my mother
Em                                    Em
  And I couldn't awake from the nightmare
                                D
That sucked me in and pulled me under
 A           G C  Bm
Pulled me under

Chorus:
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real

           Em    Em
I love you,
                          D  A G C  Bm
But I'm afraid to love you
Em           Em                   D      A G
  I love you,  but I'm afraid to love you
C           Bm
 I'm afraid.

Chorus:
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real
C                 D
  Oh... that was so real
C                 D  G Bm Gm
  Oh... that was so reeeeeeal

Gm              G
Oh that was so real
             Bm
Oh that was so  real
                Gm
Oh that was so real
G                Bm      Gm
Oh, Oh that was so reeeeeeal
Gm    Bm     Gm Em G
Real Real    reeeeal
             Bm      Gm Em G
