Once Upon a Lifetime Alabama
Intro: Bm - G - D
[D]Once upon a lifeti[G]me
I looked in someone's eyes[Bm]
[G] [D]
And felt the fire burning in my heart
For the ver[A]y first time
[D]She was scared and young[G]
And had never tasted love[Bm]
So I [D]took her by the hand[G]
And a boy[D] became a man[G]
[A]Once upon a lifeti[D]me.
[D]And once upon a lifetime[G]
You hold the queen of hearts[Bm]
But if you gamb[G]le on a diamond wh[D]en
The dea[A]ling starts
[D]You stand to lose it all[G]
As the cards begin to fall[Bm]
And the [D]lesson learned is hard[G]
You're only dealt[D] the queen of hearts[G]
[A]Once upon a lifeti[D]me,
Chorus:
So if[Bm] you take a chance
Just kn[G]ow the chance you take[D]
A br[Bm]oken heart's a high p[G]rice to pay[D]
[Bm]Foolish ways will make [F#m]fools of the wise[G]
And the best [Bm]things seldom come along [G]twice.[A]
[D]And once upon a lifetime[G]
You know that you've been blessed[Bm]
When you hold y[G]our first born tenderly [D]
[A]Against your chest
And through the innocenc[D]e you see[G]
There you are the family[Bm]
And you[D] feel a special bond[G]
That on[D]ly comes along[G]
[A]Once upon a lifeti[D]me.
Repeat Chorus.
And pe[G]ople only find[D]
A love[G] like yours and mine[D]
[A]Once upon a lifeti[D]me
Outro- G - D
