-7*  8 -7* 8  -9
Once up-on a time 
8 -7*   -7  -7*   -7   7  -6   -5
a girl with moon-light in her eyes 
-3*  4   -3* 4   -5
Put her hand in mine  
-6  -5*  -5    4  -3* 7
and said she loved me so. 
-6   7   -7  -7*  -7 7 -6  -5
But that was once up-on a time,  
-5*-6  -5  4-3*
ver-y long a-go. 

-7*  8 -7* 8  -9
Once up-on a time 
8  -7* -7  -7* -7  7  -6   -5
we sat be-neath a wil-low tree 
 -3*   4  -3*  4   -5
Count-ing all the stars 
-6  -5*  -5   4  -3*  7
and wait-ing for the dawn.   
-6   7   -7  -7*  -7 7 -6  -5
But that was once up-on a time, 
-5* -6   -5  4  -3*
now the tree is gone 

-5* -6    -5   -5*  -5    -5*   -6   -5
How the breeze ruf-fled through her hair! 
 4  -4 4   -5    -3*  
How we al-ways laughed 
4  -5   -6  7  -6*  7  -7   -6
as tho' to-mor-row was-n't there. 
7   8    -7*  -6   7  -6*  7   8  -7*
We were young and did-n't have a care.  
 -9   -7* -5 7
Where did it go? 

-7*  8 -7* 8  -9
Once up-on a time 
 8   -7*  -7   -7*  -7  7   -6  -5
the world was sweet-er than we knew. 
-3* 4   -3*   4   -5
Ev-'ry-thing was ours, 
-6  -5* -5 4  -3*   7
how hap-py we were then. 
-6   7   -7  -7*  -7 7 -6  -5
But some-how once up-on a time 
-5* -6  -5   4 -3*
Nev-er comes a-gain.
