Once Upon A Time by Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise
Charted by: Micbass
----
My first chart here at U-G. I'm deducing chord
voicing based on the song's structure and bass
line; the guitar and/or keyboard my occasionally
play a Bm9 or D6, for example. But this should
give you the basic structure of the song.
Play around. Have fun.
