C  Am  C  Am

[Verse]

C
Savage at heart
Am
Escape for a day you won't go back
C
I should have seen from the start
           Am
There'd be more heartache than pain
C
I'm watching the wind blow
Am
I'm watching the rain
C
I'm watching this love grow
       Am
No more heartache or pain

[Chorus]

            C      F
'Cos this is real
       C      F
This is real
       C       G
This is real
                      F
This is as good as it gets
                        C     Am
This is as good as it gets

[Verse]

C
I'm staying for a party
Am
And I'm staying for change
C
I'm feeling kinda naughty, I'm glad to say
Am
Nothing has changed
C
I'm watching my love grow
Am
I'm watching the kids go mad and I'm
C                                   F
I'm watching this whole thing from above

[Chorus]

            C     F
'Cos this is real
       C      F
This is real
       C      G
This is real
                      F
This is as good as it gets

[Bridge]

G                              F
Second time round I'll make it better
G                              F
Second time round I'll make you stay
G                              F
Second time round I'll make it better, for you
             C
My honeymoon child
             Am
My honeymoon child
             C
My honeymoon child
             Am
My honeymoon child

[Chorus]

Cos this is real
           (My honeymoon child)
        C       F
This is real

This is real
                      F
This is as good as it gets
                      C
This is as good as it gets
