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...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:E C#m We love... We live... A C#m We give what we can give... Am E And take what little we deserve...Outro E F#m/E E Once upon another time...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...
