Real life — Bon Jovi
Bon Jovi ? Real Life
Alright, well the recording I?ve got of this sounds to be tuned between E and Eb, which just makes things but it does work. The first chord is a D, so tune your guitar?s D string down to the D on that first of the recording.
Verse: |: A | E | F#m | D :|
I wish life was like it is in the movies Cos? the hero always gets his way No matter how hard it gets on that dark lonely road At the end, he?s got a smile on his face
But when they threw me out to the lions
No one saved me as I fell from your grace
And no one wrote me new lines of what I said wrong
And what I did wrong I could not erase
Chorus ?the same as the intro, with vocals.
This is real life, this is real love This is real pain, that much I?m sure of This are real tears, this is real fear inside That I can?t hide
| D | D | - On the link between the chorus and the verse here, it sounds like Richie is using a whammy bar or pedal over the chord, but it sounds like he?s playing a ?D? chord.
Verse
I wish I could be your white night in armour With an honour just to bring you back home But I?ll admit I?m scared of dialing your number
Cos? someone else is gonna answer the phone
Why can?t it be like it is on TV? When New York gets too plain and you come back to me
Chorus ?the same as the intro, with vocals.
This is real life, this is real love This is real pain, that much I?m sure of This are real tears, this is real fear inside That I can?t hide This is real life, this is real love These are real wounds I?m bleedin? from And I realise this is real
Bridge
I always thought that our love Was a story for two God knows that I?d never dream In the end? it would stand.
Chorus ?the same as the intro, with vocals.
This is real life, this is real love This is real pain, that much I?m sure of This are real tears, this is real fear inside That I can?t hide This is real life, this is real love These are real wounds I?m bleedin? from And I realise this is real
