***ONCE UPON A TIME - by Jem Finer from the album "Waiting For Herb" Once Upon A Time - as perfomed by The Pogues INTRO: E
EThe hour's late and the C#mlights are low AI'm walking home just Bkicking stones EI waited at the deopt C#myou never showed AYou missed the last bus hours ago B EI remember the first time I C#msaw you on the street EYou looked so pretty my Aheart skipped a beat I can't wait any longer but I Bstill feel the heat I'm Edown but I'm still on my Bfeet
I walked on down the old fairground Up from the docks blew a lonely sound I sat for a while on the cold hard ground Watched the stars slowly turn as the earth spun around As the past falls behind up ahead there's a crack Of light shining bright through the night so black Like a runaway train rolling down the track >From here there's no turning back
EListen to me baby Once upon a time AMy heart was an ocean You Bswam against the tide EThe time is past for grieving My tears have all run dry AI'll leave you with my love And Bnow I say goodbye
E A E A The bottles broke the glasses are cracked The cards are all dealt and the chips have been stacked The lamp shades busted and the curtains are torn The door keeps knocking but there's nobody home I stood by the road brushed a tear from my eye Cursed the cars and the rain and the rolling grey sky I turned around turned my back on that town And I never looked back again Listen to me baby...
