Song
Intro - Main Riff

Verse 1 - Main Riff
There's only one thing that matter
there's only one thing
There's only one thing that happens
        >Riff 2
There's only one fate

There's only one price worth taking
so open your eyes
There's only one look worth makin
	>Riff 2
There is only one look
	>Riff 2
There is only one look

Chorus 1
Can you see me, can you hear me, can you make me feel
Can you reach inside and teach me, really turn my wheel ???
Are You the Real Deal - go back to riff 1

Verse 2 - riff 1
There's only one time worth wasting
There's only one time
There's only one fruit worth tasting
	>Riff 2
There's only one fruit
There's only one life start living
There's only one life
There's only one gift start giving
	>RIff 2
There's only one gift
	>Riff 2
There is only one gift

Chorus 2
Do you mean it, Do you need it, Do you understand
Can I trust you coz I must do, leave it in your hands
Are you the Real Deal
Are you the real deal

Bridge - Riff 2
I wanna know - Are you the Real Deal x 4 - then back to Riff 1
Are you the Are you the Are you the Real Deal

Solo - over verse progression

Verse 3
There's only one line worth takin
There's only one line
There's only one look worth makin
	>Riff 2
There is only one look
	>Riff 2
There is only one look
	>Riff 2 - hold B for a bar or so (just listen to CD)
There is only one look

Bridge 2 - riff 2
I wanna know - Are you the Real Deal - repeat until tired

Additional Notes - In the chorus, I'm sure that the guitarist fiddles
around with hammering and picking between the A and B base notes when
playing the B5 power chord.
