Real Things
Joe Nichols
[Intro]
C
C
I love real things built to last
F
Hardwood floors and stone fireplaces
C
And looking back on the past
C
Ice cold beer, fish that fight
Wise, old bucks
F
And old timer's tellin' lies
C
Fireflies
G
Rainy days, I love them, I always have
F
Screened in porches, my old, straw hat
G C
Smell of dogwoods, early signs of spring
Real things
C
I love real things like a hard days work
F
Sinkin' my hands in fresh plowed dirt
C
And lovin' someone so much it hurts
C
New strings on an old guitar
Moonshine in a mason jar
F C
And just feelin' alive, at peace with who you are
G
Real things, I love 'em, I always have
Like grandma's kitchen
C
And grandpa's laugh
G F
Stealin' that first kiss on the front porch swing
C G
Real things
Am F C
It's a real things, that I come back to every year
Am F G C
Like Christmas time with those that I hold dear
Am
When it's the real things
F C F C
The truth rings so loud and clear
G
For those with ears to hear
C
I want real things like I love you
F
Or an amen, from the very last pew
C
And I miss you dad
C
Son, I miss you too
G
Real things, I love them, I always have
F
Like the kinfolk shoes on a welcome mat
G F
Sunday morning, hearing my mama sing
C F C F C
Real things, I love those real things
C
Real things
