finally got dealt something real

(guitar solo) [Verse 1] You showed up late to a story I thought I’d already read Right when I quit believing In all that meant-to-be shit Then you walked in smiling Like you knew some secret I missed Now you drive me just a little crazy But I kinda love you for it [Pre-Chorus] I used to chase love down Like it owed me something back Now you reach for my hand And I don’t even have to ask [Chorus] Finally got dealt something real No bluff, no games, no spinning the wheel You love me loud, you love yourself too And damn, that looks beautiful on you If I fall apart, you don’t let me fall You catch me before I hit the floor at all After all those duds I thought I had to feel Baby, I finally got dealt something real [Verse 2] I used to work overtime For people working their way out Trying to turn breadcrumbs into dinner Trying to turn maybe into no doubt Now you make loving look easy Not careless, just honest and true Funny how all my old heartbreaks Look kinda stupid next to you [Pre-Chorus] I don’t have to beg you To stay another night You don’t make me earn What you already know is right [Chorus] Finally got dealt something real No bluff, no games, no spinning the wheel You love me loud, you love yourself too And damn, that looks beautiful on you If I fall apart, you don’t let me fall You catch me before I hit the floor at all After all those duds I thought I had to feel Baby, I finally got dealt something real [Bridge] So here’s to tears That don’t come from pain Here’s to somebody Who actually plans to stay Here’s to no more chasing No more proving what I’m worth Maybe every wrong turn Was just pointing me to her [Breakdown] And if destiny’s real It’s got one hell of a grin ’Cause the minute I stopped looking That’s when you walked in [Final Chorus] Finally got dealt something real Something I don’t have to question to feel You know what love is, you know who you are And somehow you still want all of my heart If I lose my footing, you’ll pull me around Swoop me up before I ever touch the ground Now all we gotta do is keep falling still A little bit deeper, a little more real Yeah, all those duds can keep their deal Baby, I finally got dealt something real [Outro] No begging No guessing No wondering how you feel Just me Just you And something finally real
