Em7A6/9 (4x)
Em7Bm As I bask in the glow of a just-lit fire Em7Bm7 feeling the warmth as the flame grows higher Em7A6/9Dmaj7 I think it's true that nothing is really new under the sun Bm7E7 watching a new love grow from old love's embers Bm7E7 yesterday's gone but today remembers Em7/BA7sus4Dmaj7Asus4Gmaj7 doesn't it seem to come down the same for everyone?
DA11DA11 Only love is real, everything else illusion DF#m7/C#F#m7BmE7ADmaj7 adding to the confusion of the way we connive at being alive Gmaj7Em7F#m7F#7 tracing a line till we can define BmBm7E7 the thing that allows us to feel Dmaj7A11Dmaj7A11 only love is real, only love is real.
Em7A6/9 (4x)
Em7Bm Childhood dreams like muddy waters Em7Bm7 flowing through me to my son and daughters Em7A6/9Dmaj7 everything I ever thought is confirmed as truth to me Bm7E7 even as I see the way that I want to go now Bm7E7 still I wish I had known twhat I know now Em7/BA7sus4Dmaj7Asus4Gmaj7 maybe I could have spared you giving your youth to me.
DA11DA11 Only love is real, everything else illusion DF#m7/C#F#m7BmE7ADmaj7 adding to the confusion of the way we contrive to just stay alive Gmaj7Em7F#m7F#7 tracing a line till we can define BmBm7E7 the thing that allows us to feel Dmaj7A11Dmaj7A11 only love is real, only love is real, Dmaj9A11Dmaj7A11 only love is real, only love is real.
