Once Upon A Time Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

E

EThe hour's late and the C♯mlights are low

AI'm walking home just Bkicking stones

EI waited at the deopt C♯myou never showed

AYou missed the last bus hours ago B

EI remember the first time I C♯msaw you on the street

EYou looked so pretty my Aheart skipped a beat

 I can't wait any longer but I Bstill feel the heat

 I'm Edown but I'm still on my Bfeet

I walked on down the old fairground

Up from the docks blew a lonely sound

I sat for a while on the cold hard ground

Watched the stars slowly turn as the earth spun around

As the past falls behind up ahead there's a crack

Of light shining bright through the night so black

Like a runaway train rolling down the track

>From here there's no turning back

EListen to me baby Once upon a time

AMy heart was an ocean You Bswam against the tide

EThe time is past for grieving My tears have all run dry

AI'll leave you with my love And Bnow I say goodbye

E A E A

The bottles broke the glasses are cracked

The cards are all dealt and the chips have been stacked

The lamp shades busted and the curtains are torn

The door keeps knocking but there's nobody home

I stood by the road brushed a tear from my eye

Cursed the cars and the rain and the rolling grey sky

I turned around turned my back on that town

And I never looked back again

Listen to me baby...

E A E A B E C♯m A B E B

Listen to me baby...
