Something Real

Intro: Am   F   C 


 C                           Am 
Sometimes, a crowd makes me lonely 
 F                               C 
Sometimes, a shot just makes me sad 
 C                          Am 
Sometimes, I miss that old small town, slow down 
 F                              C 
Life I kinda wish that I still had 


G                       Am 
I can't really pour my heart out 
F             C 
On the FM radio 
                           Am 
'Cause the way I'm really feeling 
                       F 
Won't fill up the Coliseum 
                    C 
On the edge of Tupelo 


                       Am                 F 
Yeah, I need a little backbone in my backbeat 
                 C 
I need a little lifelong in my front seat 
                  Am                   F                      C 
I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still 

                      Am               F 
I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak 
                          C 
Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes 
                           Am 
Give me something that'll burn 
                 F               C 
I can turn into something I can feel 

                        Am  F 
Yeah, I want somethin' real 
           C 
Somethin' real 

 
C                           Am 
I like a long drive down a backroad 
F                           C 
A pretty girl sitting at a bar 
                            Am 
But those roads don't go forever 
                           F 
Pickup lines don't always get her 
                    C 
And that neon just goes dark 



G                      Am 
I wanna climb up on a mountain 
F                         C 
I want a love that feels like home 
                      Am 
Yeah, I want a conversation 
                     F 
Like a sunset and a song 
                   C 
I can feel down in my bones 


 
                       Am                 F

                           Am 
When the red dirt settles down 
                            F 
And there's nothing left around 
                           C 
I'm just lookin' for some truth
