Lyrics

Stand ing in a line,

won der why it don’t move.

Try’n a get a head.

Watch ing peo ple break the rules.

And may be the man in charge

does n’t like my (Cm7)face.

But then this world’s not al ways good and (Db)noth ing’s real but (Ab)love.

Noth ing’s real but (Bbm7)love.

(Cm7)No (Db)mon ey, no house, no car can beat (Ab)love.

They watch us o pen mouthed

as we joke a round like fools.

See who can be the worst.

Watch what I can do.

But then the door gets slammed, (Bbm7)slammed right in my face.

And I guess this world’s not al ways good and (Db)noth ing’s real but (Ab)love.

Noth ing’s real but (Bbm7)love.

(Cm7)No (Db)house, no car, no job, can beat (Ab)love.

It won’t (Bbm7)fill you up.

(Cm7)No (Db)mon ey no house, no (Eb)car, is like (Ab)love.

La la la (Bbm7)la.

La la (Cm7)la.

(Eb)Yeah.

I put it all a (Absus4)way,

(Gb)hold ing it back for a rain y day.

But (Bbsus4)what if that day don’t come?

I need (Ab)love.

(Cm7)No (Db)mon ey no house, no (Eb)car, is like (Ab)love.

Ooh.

It don’t (Bbm7)fill you up.

It (Cm7)won’t (Db)build you up.

It won’t fill (Eb)you up.

It’s not (Ab)love

and noth ing’s real with out (Bbm7)love.

(Cm7)No (Db)mon ey no house, no car, is like (Ab)love.

Noth ing’s real but (Bbm7)love.

(Cm7)No (Db)mon ey no house, no car, is like (Ab)love.
