Once Upon A Time

INTRO: C   Fm6 C F C   Fm6 C F

C                 Fm       C
Every morning you wake up alone
        Fm                      G             F
And you shake up your soul, but nothing stirs
   C                       Fm       C
So you take the love of whoever you please
        Fm                       G
But you can't find no reason for giving yours


CHORUS:
       F
'Cause once upon a time
    Em
You held a love, so strong and fine
     F              Ab              C
That all the others simply don't compare
      F
She's always on your mind
    Em                           F      C   Fm6 C F
But once upon a time you had her there


C                     Fm    C
Drive into town 'most every night
       Fm                                 G               F
On the chance that there might be someone waiting for you
    C                     Fm           C
You tell yourself, you'll give it your best
      Fm                       G
Maybe settle for less, but you never do


CHORUS:
       F
'Cause once upon a time
    Em
You held a love, so strong and fine
     F              Ab              C
That all the others simply don't compare
      F
She's always on your mind
    Em                           F
But once upon a time you had her there
