[Intro] D A7 D [Verse 1]
D                    D7
Not so long ago, she cared for me

G                     G7
I was young and acted foolishly

A7
Broke her heart, caused us to part

       D
Once upon a time

D                      D7
Unconcerned, I let her slip away

G                   G7
In my sorrow, now I curse the day

  A7
I broke her heart, caused us to part

      D            D7
Once upon a time
[Chorus]
G
Once upon a time, I must confess

C
In my reach was complete happiness

D                      D7
Didn't know that I was really livin'

       G
Once upon a time

G
Now another kisses her goodnight

C
She was mine, and would be mine tonight

D                  D7
If I'd only done a little givin'

      G
Once upon a time

      A7
Once upon a time,
[Bridge]
  D                                A7
I laughed the night she said, this is the end

D                        G
Made her cry in front of all her friends

D                A7
Acted smart, and broke her heart

      D          A7
Once upon a time

D                 A7
I remember what I told the crowd

D                  G
Let her go, I even yelled it loud

  D                 A7
I talked a lot, and lost a lot

      D           D7
Once upon a time
[Chorus]
G
Gone forever, never to return

C
Is the love that once so brightly burned

D
I remember once upon a time

           G
How much I used to brag

G
Like so many little grains of sand

C
I let her slip through my foolish hands

D
And before I knew it, love had turned

            G
From riches back to rags
[Outro]
A7                   G   A7 D
Once upon a time she was my love.
