Lyrics

(F)There will be an oth er song for (Eb)me,

for I will (Dm11)sing

it.

(Bbm6)There will be an oth er dream for (G)me,

some one will (F)bring

it.

I (F)will (Bbmaj7)drink the wine while it is warm

and nev er let you catch me (Cm6)look ing at the sun,

and (Bbm)af ter all the loves of my (Gm7)life,

(Fmaj13)af ter all the (Eb)loves of my (Dm7)life,

(F6)you’ll still be the (Ebmaj7)one.

I will (Fmaj9)take my life

in to my hands,

and I will (Bbmaj7)use

it.

(G)I will win the wor ship in their (A)eyes,

and (C9)I will (F)lose

it.

I will (Bbmaj7)have the things that I de sire,

and my pas sions flow like

riv ers through the sky,

and (Gb)af ter all the loves of my (Bb)life,

(Db)af ter all the loves of my (Am7)life, I’ll be think ing of (Ebmaj7)you

and (C7)won der ing (D)why.

On ly (Ab)one life,

just a ti ny (Db)spark,

but now on that (Ab)he is gone, (Eb)I’m some where in the (Eb)dark.

If If there are ten (Ab)mil lion men on this plan et, (Gb)tell me, then how could on ly (Dbmaj7)one

(Eb)life

leave such a (Fm7)mark on me?

(Bbm7)One

(Bbm7)life,

(Ab)how could I have known

(Dbmaj7)one

(Eb)life

(C7sus)could be (C7)such a (Fm)part of me?

More (Ab)pre cious than my (Bbm7)own,

to on ly one (Ab)life.

On ly (Ab)one life,

just what does it (Db)mean?

It’s now on ly (Ab)birth and death (Eb)and ev ’ry thing be (Eb)tween.

If liv ing is a (Ab)point less chore, just ex ist ence, (Gb)noth ing more, why does on ly (Dbmaj7)one

(Eb)life

leave such an (Fm7)emp ty space, (Bbm7)one

(Bbm7)life

(Ab)make it right or wrong,

(Dbmaj7)one

(Eb)life

(C7sus)take a (C7)love I (Fm)can’t re place

that (Ab)al ways will be (Bbm7)long,

to on ly one (Ab)life.

On ly (Ab)life?

(E)Just an oth

er (Bmaj7)soul a mong so man y,

(Cm7)so who cares

if one should (Bbmaj7)fall?

But (Dm7)though we’re small,

we’re (Cmaj7)full of mag ic when we

(Ab)touch the world.

We (Gb)change it all

with on ly one (Ab)life.

We on ly have one (Ab)chance to fight,

but if we (Ebm7)live it right, all we need is (Dbmaj7)one

(Eb)life

to make a (Fm7)dif f’rence here, (Bbm7)one

(Bbm7)life,

it’s (Ab)such a small a mount,

(Dbmaj7)one

(Eb)life

to (C7sus)say we (C7)care so (Fm)loud and clear.

We (Ab)have to make it (Bbm7)count

af ter (Abmaj9)all,

with on ly one (Ab)life.
