Once You Love - Steve Earle
Intro: DGDA X 2
D G
A long time ago there lived a man
D A
He had the world in the palm of his hand
G A
Sultans and kings beat a path to his door
G A
He had everything but he still wanted more
D G
One day in spring came a lady so fair
D A
He'd never looked on a beauty so rare
G A
But he didn't trust her so he locked her away
G A
And his gold lost its luster when love died that day
CHORUS:
G D C G
Once you love, once you trust it
G D C G
Once you give your soul is bare
G D C G
One false move and you know you're busted
G D G A
Once you love you care
D G
I knew an old man who lived all alone
D A
In a sad Iittle house at the end of the road
G A
He sat on his front porch in an old rocking chair
G A
And everyone swore he'd gone crazy down there
D G
But no one comes near so how could they know
D A
He lost someone dear to him once long ago
G A
He remembers the laughter and still tastes the tears
G A
And he still calls her name out after all of these years
CHORUS:
G D C G
Once you love, once you trust it
G D C G
Once you give your soul is bare
G D C G
One false move and you know you're busted
G D G
Once you love you care
C G D
You can keep it all inside
C G D
You can run but you can't hide
C
When you think it's safe outside
D G D
Look behind you, love will find you
CHORUS:
G D C G
Once you love, once you trust it
G D C G
Once you give your soul is bare
G D C G
One false move and you know you're busted
G D G
Once you love you care
C G G D
Once you trust it
C G G D
Once you care (Repeat and fade)
