Capo: 3
Intro:  Am   G   F    C   Am   G  C  
GI was born in a messed up world
Wide- eyed, little lonely girl
CIn love- it was plain to see
Nobody held onto me
GI moved around until I messed up good
Lost myself like they said I would
CAin't like I want it to be
But nobody held onto me
I spent Emeveryday runCnin' away
But Emall I needed wasA  
FReal Cdeal, real Glove
The kind Amthat won't give Fup
When I'm Cnot quite Ggood enough
FBig Cdeal, your Gheart, no Amdoors
Or Freason Cto run Gout
I gotta find Amsomeone like me
And GI really don't want him to Cleave
(same as first;  Gand C)
Well I cursed this damn old world
It ain't easy as boy meets girl
'Cause I watched him walk away
It doesn't mean it wasn't meant to be
I spent Emevery day prayin' Che would stay
Em'Cause where all I needed wAas
(Same Chords)
The real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up
When I'm not quite good enough
Big deal, your heart, no doors
Or reason to run out
I gotta find someone like me
And I really don't want him to leave
One Ftime
He tried
I Cloved him
So I can't Gsay he lied
But Amhe let Ggo  (repeat once)
