Once Was One
Composição de (John Baldwin Gourley)
Intro: G Em G D Am 


   Em                                   G 
Of all of us he had to know he'd never grow 
     D                                    Am 
He'd never climb he'd never love like the love I know 
       Em                        G 
As I was two and he was ten they carried me 
         D                                 Am 
through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas 
G                C          G 
Once was born of light like you 
Am               C         G 
Once was one but now we're two 
G                  C         G 
When I was born of love like you 
     Am               C      G 
When you were ten and I was two 
           Em                           B 
There were two monkey's talking soundin like little dogs 
          C                   G 
they were barkin and bitchin about what was wrong 
       Em                           B 
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride 
    C                       G 
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines 
       Em         B     C        G 
Singin we all we all we all turn on 
Em        B      C        G 
we all we all we all turn off 
     Em         G             Am           Em 
When gathering all we need to share is the wind 
    D                             Am 
For anything to die it needs first to begin 

Repeat verse and chorus 

Bridge:
  
A         C      G            A 
In time saw your future's not burnin so bright 
    C         G             A 
and if we too long it'll be less like mine 

Repeat Chorus 

Guitar Solo: E C B G 

End:
 
Em           G                      Am            Em 
Human greed, love and lies would be tricks of mine 
D                                  Am 
But I was of the future, past, and present time 

G                C          G 
Once was born of light like you 
Am               C         G 
Once was one but now we're two 
G                  C         G 
When I was born of love like you 
     Am               C      G 
When you were ten and I was two
