Once Upon a Time
Rick Danko

E                               A
Once upon a time, everything I thought of           
Am                   E
Somehow seemed to rhyme                             
                F#7
The wise were always old                            
Am                        B
And the young were always showed                    
E             E7           A    C          Am        
But very early on, I was spun a different yarn      
Am                                           E
Tried to get along, just by knowing right from wrong 

Am
The best offer is a helping hand                    
                           E   
Everyone needs a promised land                    
A                           C
And whether you're young or old                     
   C                       B         E
Never ever let yourself get put on hold

E                        A                   Am
I would sit on grandpa's knee..just to wear his hat 
        E                B
And listen to the tales                             
   Am                    E
From his world of make believe..                    

Am  C  E7  A7  C7  B7

E                                  A
As the child comes of age, leave him alone          
Am           E
To turn the page                                    
 F#                       A              B7        E
Luck is the spine..a broken promise of another's mind
E                          Am              E
Straight goods really are what money cannot buy
 B                             Am
Choose your side, and walk with pride          
                      E
There's no reward for suicide...
