Once Upon A Lifetime Chords

Capo 1
 
[Intro]
Am   F   C   F C
 
[Verse 1]
C           F
Once upon a lifetime
            G         Am
I looked in someone's eyes
             Dm           C
And felt the fire burning in my heart
                   Gm    G
For the very first time
C                  F
She was scared and young
        G            Am
And had never tasted love
              G      F
So I took her by the hand
      Em           F
And a boy became a man
G           C           F C
Once upon a lifetime.
 
 
[Verse 2]
C               F
And once upon a lifetime
             G        Am
You hold the queen of hearts
           Dm          C
But if you gamble on a diamond when
            Gm     G
The dealing starts
    C                F
You stand to lose it all
               G      Am
As the cards begin to fall
        C                 Dm
And the lesson learned is hard
            Em                 F
You're only dealt the queen of hearts
G           C
Once upon a lifetime,
 
 
[Chorus]
          Am
So if you take a chance 
     F                   C
Just know the chance you take
  Am               F             C
A broken heart's a high price to pay
Am                Em                F
Foolish ways will make fools of the wise
        Dm                 F          G
And the best things seldom come along twice.
 
 
[Verse 3]
C               F
And once upon a lifetime
              G           Am
You know that you've been blessed
         Dm                   C
When you hold your first born tenderly 
             Gm    G
Against your chest
                C             F
And through the innocence you see
                      Am
There you are the family
        C              Dm
And you feel a special bond
     Em          F
That only comes along
      G     C
Once upon a lifetime.
 
 
[Chorus]
          Am
So if you take a chance 
     F                   C
Just know the chance you take
  Am               F             C
A broken heart's a high price to pay
Am                Em                F
Foolish ways will make fools of the wise
        Dm                 F          G
And the best things seldom come along twice.
 
 
[Ending]
    F           C
And people only find
  F                   C    Dm  C
A love like yours and mine
G           C
Once upon a lifetime
 
 
[Outro]
Am    F    C
