A Real Thing chords by The Beths

🎸 Intro:

G



🎸 Verse :
 G
Picking up the tyres from the side of the road

Gonna push back the coming tide
 G
Lay?them in the harbour in symmetrical rows

Disappear when the water is high
 G
Setting and regretting now my sneakers are soaked

So they're drying in the sun outside
   G
It's not what I intended when I woke up the house

I was screaming "we're all gonna die"
🎸 Pre-Chorus:
       Am G  F  G
And now we're all in late trains
 Am G   F  E  D
Racing the motorway

🎸 Chorus:
           C
Getting rhyme over reason
    D        C
It's a sinister silly season
 D          Bm  C      G
Maybe we can end up meaning a real thing

🎸 Interlude:
G

 G
Laying down beside them like I'm in on the joke

Wake me up when the world is fried
      G            F
And you're sorry
I see it when you open your mouth
C/E                  Eb
You've got one hand over your heart while you're holding me down
  G
Oh I want to hope but if that's not allowed

I guess I'll go out instead
