Capo 5th fret
Intro: D Bm Em A
[G]Once upon a lo[A]nely time
I could b[Bm]arely make it though the night
[G]It always seemed the s[A]ky was falling
[Bm]Down on me
[G]But life's funny y[A]ou don't own it
[Bm]Things can change in a single moment
[E7]That's what happened to [G]me
Chorus:
[D]Every time a promise fell through
[Bm]Every time my heart broke in two
And [Em]it was always too dark to see t[A]he horizon
When I t[D]hought I had it right in my hand
[Bm]It would slip right through like sand
[Em]I didn't know why but [E]now I see
That l[G]ife had other p[D]l--a[Em]ns f[A]or m[D]e
(repeat intro)
Verse 2:
I was doing my best, giving my all
Kept hittin' my head up against the wall
Missin' the mark when I thought my
Aim was true
I didn't know just what it meant
But now I see that it was heaven sent
'Cause that's when I met you
CHORUS
(repeat intro)
[Bm]When I was at my worst a[G]nd couldn't see the light
[E7]Somehow I knew it would [G]be alright, cause
CHORUS
(keep repeating intro to fade)
