Once When I Was Little

 EmCGD/F#
VERSE1
 EmCGD/F#
   I was the one who would always jump in first   
 EmCGD/F#
    I didn't think twice to look behind   
 EmCGD/F#
    Got such a good feeling, just from playing in the dirt  
 EmCGD/F#
 Once when I was little   

VERSE2
 EmCGD/F#
    We could build a rocket, fly to the moon   
 EmCGD/F#
    Leave Tuesday morning, and be back for noon  
 EmCGD/F#
    There wasn't nothing, nothing that we couldn't do  
 EmCGD/F#EmCG
Oh, once when I was little, mmm, once when I was little

CHORUS
 CDEmG7
And yeah I could dream more then,  I could believe more then 
 CBmD
That the world could only get better
 CDEmG7
I could be free more then,  I could pretend more then 
 CBmD
That this life could only show me good times
 C
Once when I was little

INTERLUDE
 EmCGD/F#
VERSE3
 EmCGD/F#
    There was a time when I trusted everyone  
 EmCBm
    There was no place that I wouldn't go
 CDEmF#7
  Spend all day on the hillside next to the barley mow
 EmCGD/F#EmCG
Oh, once when I was little, yeah  once when I was little

CHORUS
 CDEmG7
Yeah I could dream more then,  and I believed more then 
 CBmD7
That the world would only get better
 CDEmG7
I could be free more then,  and I could pretend more then 
 CBmD
That this life could only show me good times
Am...
Once when I was little

BRIDGE
... D/F#
I used to feel so strong
F6 E7 F6 = 103231
Even when they tell me, tell me I was wrong
 Am
That I can't live in a magic world
 D
Cause it's time for me to grow up
 G
And I got to be like the rest of them
 F6E7
When I know things have been lost, oh

CHORUS
 CDEmG7
I could pretend more then,  and I could believe more then 
 CBmD
That the world, it would only get better
 CD
Whoa, I could believe more then, yes I could
 EmG7
And I could pretend more then
 CBmD
That this life, it could only show me good times
 CEmCGD/F#
Once when I was little                 

OUTRO
 EmCGD/F#
    So here comes the next one, the next in line   
 EmCGD/F#
   Stay as young as you can, for the longest time  
 EmCGD/F#
    Cause those days flew by like a breeze just passing through  
 EmCG
 Once when I was little.
