(Ab)Once

there was (Bb)blue sky with (Gm7)white clouds high a (C)bove,

(Fm7)once

they were (Bb7)part of an (Cm)ev er last ing (G)love.

(Cm)We

(G7)through green (Cm)fields.

(Cm)Green

(Ab)gone

with the (Bb)cold wind that (Gm7)swept in to my (C)heart,

(Fm7)gone

with the (Bb7)lov ers who (Cm)let their dreams de (G)part.

are the (Fm)green fields that (Cm)we

(G7)used to (Cm)roam?
