Intro: D  G  D  A  x2

D                        G
A long time ago there lived a man
D                                    A
He had the world in the palm of his hand
G                                      A
Sultans and kings beat a path to his door
G                                       A
He had everything but he still wanted more
D                                       G
One day in spring came a lady so fair
D                                   A
He'd never looked on a beauty so rare
G                                           A
But he didn't trust her so he locked her away
G                                                  A
And his gold lost its luster when love died that day

CHORUS:
G              D       C                     G
Once you love, once you trust it
G              D              C         G
Once you give your soul is bare
G              D                      C                  G
One false move and you know you're busted
G              D             G    A
Once you love you care

D                                    G
I knew an old man who lived all alone
        D                                 A
In a sad Iittle house at the end of the road
      G                                           A
He sat on his front porch in an old rocking chair
        G                                         A
And everyone swore he'd gone crazy down there
       D                                   G
But no one comes near so how could they know
      D                                         A
He lost someone dear to him once long ago
       G                                            A
He remembers the laughter and still tastes the tears
             G                                           A
And he still calls her name out after all of these years

CHORUS:
G              D       C                      G
Once you love, once you trust it
G              D               C        G
Once you give your soul is bare
G              D                      C                  G
One false move and you know you're busted
G              D             G
Once you love you care

              C                         G D
You can keep it all inside
              C                                G D
You can run but you can't hide
                 C
When you think it's safe outside
                             D                           G D
Look behind you, love will find you

CHORUS:
G              D        C                    G
Once you love, once you trust it
G              D               C         G
Once you give your soul is bare
G               D                     C                  G
One false move and you know you're busted
G               D            G
Once you love you care

C                       G    G D
Once you trust it
C                      G     G D
Once you care
