AAM7 A6AM7 F#m
Once upon a time a girl with moonlight in her eyes
DM7 AAM7 DADBm7
Put her hand in mine and said she loved me so;
E7F#mDE7AE77-5
But that was once upon a time, very long ago.
AAM7 A6AM7 F#m
Once upon a hill we sat beneath a willow tree
DM7 AAM7 DADBm7
Counting all the stars and waiting for the dawn
E7F#mDBm7E7AAM7
But that was once upon a time now the tree is gone.
Bridge:
Bm7-5E7AM7 A6Bm7-5 E7AM7 A6
How the breeze ruffled through her hair;
G#mC#7F#mB7E7
How we always laughed as though tomorrow wasn't there.
D9ABm7-5 E7AAM7
We were young and didn't have a care
F#mB7Bm7E7
Where did it go?
AAM7 A6AM7 F#m
Once upon a time the world was sweeter than we knew,
DM7 AAM7 DADBm7
Ev'rything was ours how happy we were then!
E7F#mDM7Bm7
But somehow once upon a time
Bm7-5 E7D9AAbM7
Never comes a - gain.
