[Intro]
C Gm C Gadd9
 
 
[Verse 1]
COnce upon a time, I was falling in love with you
GmMy heart and your hands at the end of the avenue
CBatting my eyes, trying to play it all cool
Gadd9But you could see through all of that
CWhen I was sixteen, life seemed an endless stream
GmOf romance and chance and movie star beauty queens
CI tried my best to mold into their extremes
Gadd9I never fit the part
 
 
[Refrain]
C Gm7Ooh-ooh
COoh-ooh
 
 
[Verse 2]
COnce upon a time, life was an open road
GmRear view mirror, another sold out show
CAlways some place new to go
Gadd9But they all blend into onе
CAll I could see was all that it couldn't be
GmFelt so bad to be thanklеss and naive
CA hotel room with a beautiful view
Gadd9What did it matter to me?
 
 
[Refrain]
If there was no
C Gm7You-ooh
If there was no
CYou-ooh
 
 
[Bridge]
G C And maybe when I'm older
G C I can put it all to rest
G C So afraid of growing bitter
G C Like what the hell did I expect?
N.C. C Gm7 CWhile the world burns
(While the world burns)
C Gm7 CWhile the world burns
(While the world burns)
C Gm7 CWhile the world burns While the world burns
 
 
[Outro]
COnce upon a time, I was falling in love with you
GmMy heart and your hands at the end of the avenue
CBatting my eyes, trying to play it all cool
Gadd9But you could see through all of that
