Intro: Dm F C G
Dm        F            C                   G
I woke up on this side, I thought it was a dream
Dm                      F                     C              G
At first we learned to walk then learned to scream
Dm                  F                 C                G
You can't understand, when you're fed from a TV screen
Dm                 F                 C               G
You can't see the things that I can see
          F (bar chords in 8th)        F*
But I forget, that you thank God and pray
  F                       F*
Some things just never stay
F                       (Break)
And we all just slip away
                  Dm
This can't be the real world now
F                   C                       G
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
                Dm
Welcome to the real world now
F                   C              G
The old are carried in only to poison youth
    Dm         F                C
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
          G
'Cause I know
                    Dm
This can't be the real world now
F         C
Oh no oh
  G
Oh no oh
I look for some hope in every face there's a vacant stare
The shadows come but no one seems to care
The darkness floods every light that could promise change
She passed sound asleep when the blood is stain
But blood is pain
Somewhere I know, that I'm not all alone
With this bated breath I hold
My lungs want to explode
                  Dm
This can't be the real world now
F                   C                       G
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
                Dm
Welcome to the real world now
F                   C              G
The old are carried in only to poison youth
    Dm         F                C
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
          G
'Cause I know
                    Dm
This can't be the real world now
F         C
Oh no oh
  G
Oh no oh
                    Dm
This can't be the real world now
F         C
Oh no oh
  G
Oh no oh
          Dm       C5
Just as soon as we see
        B5           Bb5                 G
Every flaw and every need we'll understand
           F
And for the first time
Dm           C5              B5               Bb5
A child to a man says only pure words that he can
G                     F                  
He's too late the man he knows it he said
Dm                   G                            Dm    F    C   G
With all emotions set aside in a whisper say goodbye
                  Dm
This can't be the real world now
F                   C                       G
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
                Dm
Welcome to the real world now
F                   C              G
The old are carried in only to poison youth
    Dm         F                C
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
          G
'Cause I know
                    Dm
This can't be the real world now
F         C
Oh no oh
  G
Oh no oh
