Carole King - Only Love Is Real Chords

[Intro]
Am  Bm7   (4x)
 
[Verse 1]
     Am                    Em
As I bask in the glow of a just-lit fire
Am                          Em7
Feeling the warmth as the flame grows higher
Am7                     Cadd9                Gmaj7
I think it's true that nothing is really new under the sun
            Em7                A7
Watching a new love grow from old love's embers
Em7                     A7
Yesterday's gone but today remembers
Am7                      D7sus4           Gmaj7     Gsus4
Doesn't it seem to come down the same for everyone?
 
[Chorus]
     G        Cadd9 G                  Cadd9
Only love is real,  everything else illusion
G                 Bm7    B7     Em        A       D      Gmaj7
Adding to the confusion of the way we connive at being alive
Cmaj7               Bm7       Bm6
Tracing a line till we can define
      Em          Em7        A7
The thing that allows us to feel
Cadd9 Gmaj7    Cadd9     Gmaj7    Cadd9
Only  love is real, only love is real
 
[Break]
Am  Bm7  (4x)
 
[Verse 2]
Am                     Em
Childhood dreams like muddy waters
Am                        Em7
Flowing through me to my son and daughters
Am7                 Cadd9                 Gmaj7
Everything I ever thought is confirmed as truth to me
          Em7                A7
Even as I see the way that I want to go now
Em7                    A7
  Still I wish I had known twhat I know now
Am7                 D7sus4                Gmaj7       Gsus4
Maybe I could have spared you giving your youth to me
 
[Chorus]
     G        Cadd9 G                  Cadd9
Only love is real,  everything else illusion
G                 Bm7    B7      Em        A        D          Gmaj7
Adding to the confusion of the  way we contrive to just stay alive
Cmaj7               Bm7       Bm6
Tracing a line till we can define
      Em          Em7        A7
The thing that allows us to feel
Cadd9 Gmaj7    Cadd9      Gmaj7   Cadd9
Only  love is real, only love is real
     Gadd9    Cadd9      Gmaj7   Cadd9
Only love is real, only love is real
 
[Outro]
