[Eb]
[Ab]
[G]
you want to be [D] in love like [G] the movies, but in the movies they're [D] not in [G] love at all.
[Em] With a twinkle in [D] their eyes, [B] they're just saying [C] their lines.
And [G] so we [D] can't [C] be in [D] love [G] like the movies.
Now [B] in the movies [C] they make it look [G] so perfect.
And [B] in the background they're [C] always playing the [G] right song.
[B] And in the ending [C] there's always a [G] resolution.
[B] But real life [C] is more than [G] just two [D] [C] hours long.
So [G] you want to be [D] in love [G] like the movies, but in the movies [D] they're not in love [G] at all.
[Em] With a twinkle in [D] their eyes,
[B] they're just saying [C] their lines.
And [G] so we [D] can't [C] be in [D] love [G] like the movies.
Well [B] you could freeze frame [C] any moment from [G] a movie.
Or [B] run the whole damn thing [C] backward from reel [G] to reel.
But [B] I don't see [C] one single solitary [G] life technician.
[B] Or one [C] single camera in [G] this [D]
[C] moonlit field.
[G] I don't want to [D] be in love [G] like the movies,
cause in the movies [D] they're not in [G] love at all.
[Em] With a twinkle in [D] their eyes, [B] they're just saying [C] their lines.
[G] And so we [D] can't [C] be in [D] love [G] like the movies.
[Em] With a twinkle in [D] their eyes, [B]
they're just saying their [C]
lines.
And [G] so we [D] can't be [C] in [D] love like [G] the movies.
No, we can't [D] be [C] in love [E] like the movies.
