1. Once upon a time you and I
G
When we were green and easy
F
Fresh as limes and happy as a Sunday sky
C Ami
There was nothing we could sell or buy
G
?Cause all we really needed
F
Was our barefeet and a pair of wings to fly
Dmi G
What do you think, darling?
Dmi G
Have we lived too much, too fast?
Dmi G
And have you, have you felt the melancholy darling
Dmi G
Wishing that time hadn't passed?
C
R: Can you tell me how it used to be?
E
Have we missed our chance?
F
Have we changed our hopes for fears
G
And our dreams for plans?
C
Can you tell me how it used to be
E
When we really cared?
Ami F
And when love was on our side
G
On our side?
C Ami G F (2x)
2. I remember all the times before
When we could spend our evening
Staring at the ceiling, lying on the floor
My vocabulary wasn't broad
I spoke so little English
And the word "stress" would sound like something odd
What do you think, darling?
Have I lived too much, too fast?
And have you,have you felt the melancholy, darling
Wishing that time hadn't passed?
R: Can you tell me how it used to be?...
C Ami G F (2x)
Dmi G
*: What is your guess, darling?
Have I lived too much, too fast?
So if you, if you ever come and find me crying
Now you know, now you know why
R: Can you tell me how it used to be?...
