C Cmaj7 Am
Once upon a time a girl with moonlight in her eyes
F C F G7
Put her hand in mine and said she loved me so
Am G7 C
But that was once upon a time very long ago
C Cmaj7 Am
Once upon a time we sat beneath a willow tree
F C F G7
Counting all the stars and waiting for the dawn
Am G7 C
But that was once upon a time now the tree is gone
F C F C
How the breeze ruffled up her hair
G7 Am F G7
How we always laughed as though tomorrow wasn't there
F C F C
We were young and didn't have a care
Am G7
Where did it go
C Cmaj7 Am
Once upon a time the world was sweeter than we knew
F C F G7
Everything was ours how happy we were then
Am G7 C
But somehow once upon a time never comes again
