VERSE1

[A] [G#\A]

Three days spent staring at your photograph

[F#m] [D]

Read your letter made me laugh

[Bmadd11] [E] [Dsus2] [A]

But there's a shadow on the path

[B9sus4] [Pick1]

Till I know

If your love is real

<Repeat pattern for all verses>

VERSE2

Cos its not as if a lot was said

Falling in and falling out of bed

But now the worlds turned on its head

Till I know

If your love is real

CHORUS

[Bm] [A]

Spent a long time now persuading myself

[Bm] [A]

That I don't need no one no body else

[Bm] [Dmadd9]

That I felt all there was to feel

<Pattern is the same for last chorus too>

VERSE3

I'm in a daydream now I'm out to lunch

Should it come down to the crunch?

I'm wide open for that sucker punch

Till I know

If your love is real

CHORUS

VERSE4

I know if I should live one hundred years

I'd never see another face like yours

On stranger seas or brighter shores

Cos I know

That my love is real.

END
