The songbird sings no more,

And now she flies over the rainbow,

Will the angels cry like me?

There the blood will run;
C D Em C D Em
Oh my heart, oh my heart;
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 3
Em G A C D
Through the summer days and nights, stolen kisses and delights
Em G A
Would thrill their hearts and fill their dreams with all emotions
C D Em
That true love can bring;
Verse 4

But black of mourning came one day, when her sister passed away,
Em G A C D Em
And many said on bended knee, she has gone, you must be our Queen;

To the abbey she did ride, with her lover by her side,

When they heard the church bells ring, she was Queen

And one day, he'd be King;
Verse 6
Em G A C D
But men of malice, men of hate, protesting to her chambers came,
Em G A
A foreign prince will have your hand, for he'll bring peace
C D Em
And riches to our land;

15. Once Upon a Time 3:41
The chords I wrote here are for the live version of Once Upon a Time from the album Live in Dortmund.
I don't have the album version from the special edition of The Road to Freedom,
So I'm not sure if these chords match the original perfectly.
Intro: D
D G D
Daddy I can't sleep tonight, it's happening again,
G Gm D
Voices in the kitchen are shouting and it's keeping me awake,
Em
Is it something I've done wrong?
Bm
Maybe it's all my fault,
Em A
And why is Mummy crying all the time?
D G D
Lately I've been dreaming, dreaming of the day,
G Gm D
We will come together and be a happy family again,
Em Bm
Remember how it used to be, sitting here on my bed,
Em
Both of you with stories,
A D
When you came to say goodnight,
A D
Once upon a time you must have loved her,
Em
And held her in your arms,
A F# Bm
And told her she's the best thing in your life,
G D
And it's so sad, so bad,
Em A D G D A
To think that you don't love her anymore, anymore,
D G D
Someday when I'm older, will it be the same?
G Gm D
To wake up in the morning and find that everything in life has changed,
Em
Well I never want to see that day,
Bm
I never want to leave this home,
Em A D
But most of all I never want to hear you say goodbye,
A D
Once upon a time you must have loved her,
Em
And held her in your arms,
A F# Bm
And told her she's the best thing in your world,
G D
And it's so sad, so bad,
Em A A# Bm
To think that you don't love her anymore, anymore,
Em A
To think that you don't love her like before,
D A D G D
Once upon a time.
