Once upon a time
-8 7 -7 7 -7 -6 6 5
a girl with moonlight in her eyes
4 -4 4 -4 5
Put her hand in mine
6 -5 5 -4 4 -6
and said she loved me so.
6 -6 -7 7 -7-6 6 5
But that was once upon a time,
-5 6 5 3 4
very long ago.
Verse 2
Once upon a time we sat beneath a willow tree
Counting all the stars and waiting for the dawn.
But that was once upon a time, now the tree
Refrain;
-5 6 5 -5 5 -5 6 5
How the breeze ruffled up her hair!
-4 -4 -4 5 4 -4 5 6 -6 -6 -6 -7 6
How we always laughed as though tomorrow wasn't there.
-6 -8 7 6 -6 -6 -6 -8 7 8 7 -5 -66
We were young and didn't have a care. Where did it go?
Verse 3
Once upon a time the world was sweeter than we know.
Evry'thing was ours, how happy we were then.
But somehow once upon a time never comes again.
