Intro: G  D G C2 
 
Verse 1: 
G                        D 
I’ve never said this before 
           G                     C2 
I’ve never opened that door so wide 
G               D       
No one else is around 
                 G                    C2 
There is no good reason for me to hide 
Em      D             C       
And I, I want to be real 
 
Chorus: 
        G                                          
So I’m throwing out words I don’t fully understand  
           Em                             
I could be talkin' to myself but I don’t think I am 
             D 
Cause you’re always there through the fight 
C                                       G  D G C2 
Saving my heart from the doubt inside      
 
Verse 2: 
G                            D 
I’m not the man that I was 
          G           C         
I used to see you in highs and lows 
G                       D 
But now I keep on believing 
          G         C 
And even if I can’t see, you show 
Em      D         C 
And I, I want to be real   Ohhh 
 
Chorus: 
G                                          
Yeah I’m throwing out words I don’t fully understand  
            Em                            
I could be talkin' to myself but I don’t think I am 
             D 
Cause you’re always there through the fight 
C                                        
Saving my heart from the doubt inside    
 
Bridge: 
Em      D          C 
And I, I want to be real  
Em     D           C 
And I, I want to be real 
Em 
There’s too much at stake and  
             D            C     
I'm tired of faking I just wanna be real, I wanna be real 
Em                              
There’s too much at stake and   
                  D            C               C2            C                    
I don't care if I break I just wanna be real, I wanna be real 
 
Chorus: 
        G                                          
So I’m throwing out words I don’t fully understand  
            Em                            
I could be talkin' to myself but I don’t think I am 
             D 
Cause you’re always there through the fight 
C                                       G  Em  
Saving my heart from the doubt inside    
                    D            C 
You’re always right by my side

G 
I’ve never said this before  
                             C    C2 
I’ve never opened the door so wide 
                D        G 
But I think it’s time
