Verse 1:
C                  G              Am
There’s lessons in love sometimes
    F                 C           G
The heart is but a winding road,
              Am         F
So this story goes

Verse 2:
C                   G            Am
I get scared of the dark and I,
  F            C           G
I never even noticed rooms

Were made bright by you

C      G                          Am

            F
Yea we were up so high
C       G                            Am
We were lost when we were young but,
         F
You were mine

            C
Once upon a time
               G
You were by my side
                  Am
I wish I could’ve known
                      F
That I should hold on tight
                C
To every single word
                G
To every summer night
                  Am
I wish I could’ve known
                   F
That forever was a lie

But once upon a time

Once upon a time

I was something to someone

Verse 3:
C                    G                  Am
See your shape under gold street lights
    F                   C           G
But every time I’m close you move
                           Am      F
And I’m just left with the truth

You were mine
