Lyrics and Chords
[Peter Pan]
[ Fm6 = 
; Capo 3 ]
Once upon a time and long ago
I heard someone singing soft and low
Now when day is gone and night is near
I recall this song I used to hear
/ G - Cm - / D7 - G - / :
My child, my very own
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Sleep until the dawn for all is well
/ Am7 D7 / G Fm6G7 / A7 - Am7 D7 /
Long ago this song was sung to me
Now it's just a distant melody
Someone from the past I used to know
Once upon a time and long ago
/ G - Cm - / D7 - G - / D7 - Bm7 Em7 / Am7 D7 G - /
