ONCE WHEN I WAS LITTLE ? James Morrison

This is pretty straightforward as I see it: no capo, no overly difficult
chords etc. There might be a couple of D7s instead of plain D, but D works
just as well. Also, I'm not sure Morrison plays G7 every time. Have fun.
Standard tuning

[Em] [C] [G] [D/F#]
VERSE1
[Em] I was the one who would [C]always jump in [G]first[D/F#]
[Em] I didn't think [C]twice to look be[G]hind[D/F#]

CHORUS
And yeah I could [C]dream more then,[D] I could be[Em]lieve more then[G7]
That the [C]world could [Bm]only get [D]better
I could be [C]free more then,[D] I could pre[Em]tend more then[G7]
That this [C]life could [Bm]only show me [D]good times
Once when I was [C]little

[Em] [C] [G] [D/F#]
[Em] [C] [G] [D/F#]
VERSE3
[Em] There was a time when I[C] trusted every[G]one[D/F#]
[Em] There was no p[C]lace that I wouldn?t [Bm]go
[C] Spend all day on the [D]hillside next to t[Em]he barley [F#7]mow
Oh, [Em]once when [C]I was [G]little, y[D/F#]eah [Em]once when [C]I was [G]little

F6 E7 F6 103231
Even when they tell me, tell me I was wrong
That I can't live in a [Am]magic world
Cause it's time for me to grow[D] up
And I got to be like the [G]rest of them
When I [F6]know things have been [E7]lost, oh
CHORUS
I could pre[C]tend more then,[D] and I could be[Em]lieve more then[G7]
That the [C]world, it would [Bm]only get [D]better
Whoa, I could be[C]lieve more then, yes I [D]could
And I could pre[Em]tend more the[G7]n
That this [C]life, it could [Bm]only show me [D]good times
Once when I was [C]little[Em][C][G][D/F#]
OUTRO
[Em] So here comes the [C]next one, the next in [G]line[D/F#]
[Em] Stay as young as you [C]can, for the longe[G]st time[D/F#]

[Em]Once when [C]I was [G]little.
