[Verse 1]
Em
I've been holdin' on, I've been lookin' for the real thing,
                                        D
Waitin' patiently but I never stopped believin',
Em
Say I'm chasin' rainbows, livin' in a dream,
Em
Girl, I kept my fantasy, I'm never givin' in,
                       D    D
I'll tell you why, oh, why.

Em
Had a part time love but I never fell completely,
Em
But when you touch me there,
                D
Ooh, you get me reelin', yes, you do,
Em
Can I dare to wonder if it could be you?
Em
Girl, you set my heart on fire when I dream of you,
                D           D
I wanna fly, oh so very high.


[Chorus]
     Em
If I can't have you,
               G
I don't want nobody, baby,
           Am
Girl, it's got be you,
               Bm
Oh, I need the real thing,
     Em
If I can't have you,
               G
I don't want nobody, baby,
           Am
Girl, it's got be you, I don't need no substitute,
           Bm
I need the real thing.
