[D] [D]
[D]Bare feet on a bench seat, highway and the sky
Bandana in your blue jeans, you DJ, I drive
Flippin’ through the [G]radio, and my [Em]hat you always steal
[D]Yeah, love is real. Quick stop at a Texaco, last exit for miles
[D]Tank top and a Topo Chico, high on your smile
Feeling like a [G]Polaroid the [Em]way time’s standing still. [D]Yeah, love is real


And I could [G]drive, your hand in [Em]mine, oh, [D]baby, we’ll go ’til we run outta road
And the rust runs out these wheels, the way I [G]feel, I know I always [Em]will
I am [Bm]yours, you are [A]mine, love is [D]real


[D]Soon as “It’s Your Love” came on, I felt every word
[D]Hearing your pretty voice sing along changеd the way I heard
The way I [G]feel, thе way I see, [Em]honestly made me believe


And I could [G]drive, your hand in [Em]mine, oh, [D]baby, we’ll go ’til we run outta road
And the rust runs out these wheels, the way I [G]feel, I know I always [Em]will
I am [Bm]yours, you are [A]mine, love is [G]real, [Em]yeah, love is [D]real, baby, oh


[G]Yeah, they can call us [Em]crazy
But that ain’t [D]gon’ stop me from callin’ you, baby


So come on, let’s drive, [G]your hand in [Em]mine, oh, [D]baby, we’ll go ’til we run outta road
And the rust runs out these wheels, the way I [G]feel, I know I always [Em]will
I am [Bm]yours, you are [A]mine, love is [D]real
I am [Bm]yours, you are [A]mine, love is [D]real


[D]Love is real, lovin’ you is real
[D]Love is real, lovin’ you is real (Yeah)
[D]Love is real, lovin’ you is real (I am yours)
[D]Love is real, lovin’ you is real (You are mine)
[D]Love is real, lovin’ you is real (Love is real)
Mmhmm
