Once

[Intro] D

[First Part]

     D                             
It was easier to have fun back when
       Bm
 we had nothing
                   F#m
Nothing much to manage
         Em
Back when we were damaged

     D                         
Sometimes the freedom we wanted 
           Bm
feels so uncool
                   F#m
You just clean the pool
         Em
And send the kids to school

[Chorus]

     G                          
But oh I remember how we used to 
    D
shine
     A
Back then
         G                         
You went down so easy like a glass 
   D
of wine
    A
My friend
         G                       
When the dawn came up you felt so 
    D
inspired
         A
To do it again
          Em     D9/F#
But it turns out
Continues after the ad
    G                 D
You only get to do it once

[Second Part]

     D                             
I think it's true what they say 
       Bm
that the dream is borrowed
                   F#m
You give it back tomorrow
         Em
Minus the sorrow

        D                        
And the pain she just comes in to 
              Bm
break up the daydream
                 F#m
Her knife edges waving
                      Em
To keep from feeling the same thing

[Chorus]

     G                             
But oh I'll remember how we used to
     D
 shine
     A
Back then
         G                         
You went down so easy like a glass 
   D
of wine
    A
My friend
         G                       
When the dawn came up you felt so 
    D
inspired
         A
To do it again
            Em   D9/F#
But it turns out
    G                 D
You only get to do it once

[Bridge]

                      Bm
You only get to do it once
                      D
You only get to do it once
                      Bm    A
You only get to do it once

( D  B  D  B )
( D  B  D  B )

[Chorus]

     G                             
But oh I'll remember how we used to
     D
 shine
     A
Back then
         G                         
You went down so easy like a glass 
   D
of wine
    A
My friend
        G                        
When the dawn came up you felt so 
   D
inspired
         A
To do it again
            Em     D9/F#
But we were wrong
    G                 D
You only get to do it once
