verse 1
E F#m/E
Once upon another time,
E E2 E Bm
Our story had only begun.
Bm7 C#/B
You chose to turn the page,
F#m B7
And I made choices too...
E F#m/E
Once upon another time
E E2 E Bm
We did what we thought must be done...
Bm7 C#/B
And now, we have no choice.
F#m B7
We do what we must do...
[Refrão] E C#m
We love... We live...
A C#m
We give what we can give...
Am E
And take what little we deserve...
verse 2
Phantom:
E F#m/E
Once upon another time,
E E Bm
I knew how our story would end,
Bm C#/B
And maybe I was wrong,
F#m B7
But now the moment's gone...
E F#m/E
Were it still that other time,
E E2 E Bm
I'd make time itself somehow bend!
Bm7 C#/B
But now I'm not that strong,
F#m B7
And time keeps moving on...
Both:
[Refrão] E C#m
We love... We live...
A C#m
We give what we can give...
Am E
And take what little we deserve...
E C#m
We love... We live...
A C#m
We give what we can give...
Am E
And take what little we deserve...
