Once Upon a Lifetime
guitar chords lyrics
Intro: Bm - G - D
D G
Once upon a lifetime
Bm
I looked in someone's eyes
G D
And felt the fire burning in my heart
A
For the very first time
D G
She was scared and young
Bm
And had never tasted love
D G
So I took her by the hand
D G
And a boy became a man
A D
Once upon a lifetime.
D G
And once upon a lifetime
Bm
You hold the queen of hearts
G D
But if you gamble on a diamond when
A
The dealing starts
D G
You stand to lose it all
Bm
As the cards begin to fall
D G
And the lesson learned is hard
D G
You're only dealt the queen of hearts
A D
Once upon a lifetime,
Chorus:
Bm
So if you take a chance
G D
Just know the chance you take
Bm G D
A broken heart's a high price to pay
Bm F#m G
Foolish ways will make fools of the wise
Bm G A
And the best things seldom come along twice.
D G
And once upon a lifetime
Bm
You know that you've been blessed
G D
When you hold your first born tenderly
A
Against your chest
D G
And through the innocence you see
Bm
There you are the family
D G
And you feel a special bond
D G
That only comes along
A D
Once upon a lifetime.
Repeat Chorus.
G D
And people only find
G D
A love like yours and mine
A D
Once upon a lifetime
Outro- G - D
