G                          Bm              C                      D

People like to pontificate, and love to tell you that

        C                          D                      G           ->     Em

The moon's a false projection and the world is really flat

Am                           D                                     Am                  D

Things can't just be good or bad, and there's no real way to know

    G            ->          Em         ->  G           ->           Em
To say you have an answer is to let your privilege show

      C                        D                         G              ->         Em

The laws of physics stay the same, regardless how you feel

           C     ->  Am   G     ->    Em        C    D     G

I hope you and I, at least can cry, that reality is real

CHORUS One     

    G             

Reality is real,

    C         G                                                              

Reality is real.            

        G                           D                         D7

The stars in the sky are burning gaseous spheres

C                      D            

Math works all right,          

        G           ->           Em                                         

and Physics makes it clear      

            C        D            G                                          

That reality is basically real                                                 

Sometimes I almost lose my mind when somebody tells me that

It might be true for me, but for them there'r different facts

Because they want it to be that way, that way then it is

We'll repeat the same old bullshit that were fed to us as kids

Well, our behavior has to change, regardless how we feel

I hope you can take a stand, and present a strong appeal that reality is real

Chorus Two

    G         Em

Reality is real,

    C         G                                                              

Reality is real.            

        G                Em        C                        D

The stars in the sky are burning gaseous spheres

C                      D            

Math works all right,          

        G           ->           Em                                         

and Physics makes it clear      

            C        D            G                                          

That reality is basically real           

The worlds a complex place, there's many questions left to ask

how god or krishna made us, and for what spiritual task

how can we know what came before, if none of us were there?

We must trust revealed knowledge from a god who truly cares

enough to lead our Lives with threats of hell inside our heads

Well, I hope that you've dodged that trap and come to see instead that reality is real

Chorus Three

    G         Bm

Reality is real,

    C         G                                                              

Reality is real.            

        G                Em        C                        D

The stars in the sky are burning gaseous spheres

C                      D            

Math works all right,          

        G           ->           Em                                         

and Physics makes it clear      

            C        D            G                                          

That reality is basically real   

Perhaps you've come across folks who think they can read the stars

and learn about the future by just shufflling their cards

and speak to ancient lifeforms in amethyst or jade

And let spinal sublimation cure the problems that you've made

For your body by not harnessing the boundless flow of ki

But I must insist, they prove all this, before giving up my plea, that reality is real, reality is real. (GO to minor six on the first one, then resolve.)
