There Was A Time by Tom Pacheco
There Was A Time
(Capo 2, orig key of E)
D Em
There was a time, when rivers ran clear
A Bm D
And birds in the wind, were all you could hear
G D
The air was so sweet, in the morning sunshine
G Em A
Each day was a treat, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, when people would share
A Bm D
Whatever they had, with friends who were there
G D
They™d sit on the grass, on an evening sublime
G Em A
And drink from one glass, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, when school was a place
A Bm D
Where knowledge was gained, and classrooms were safe
G D
The playgrounds were fun, young voices in rhyme
G Em A
With no fear of guns, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, when people could trust
A Bm D
The ones they™d elect, to watch over us
G D
They™d never pull strings, they™d not take a dime
G Em A
From corporate kings, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, your job was secure
A Bm D
The plant would not move, to Kuala Lumpur
G D
The unions were strong, your benefits fine
G Em A
You felt you belonged, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, when love would endure
A Bm D
You™d marry for life, for rich and for poor
G D
And no matter how steep, the cliffs you might climb
G Em A
You™d share every leap, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, they measured your worth
A Bm D
On what good you did, while you were on earth
G D
Before money ruled, and success was defined
G Em A
By celebrity fools, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, you™d pick up your mail
A Bm D
The letters were ships, the stamps were the sails
G D
And you never had fear, of what you might find
G Em A
Hidden inside, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, when people would stand
A Bm D
And fight for their rights, they™d march hand-in-hand
G D
Before the big sleep, well planned and designed
G Em A
To turn lions to sheep, there was a time
D Em
There was a time, not long in the past
A Bm D
When everything changed, too much and too fast
G D
I stand by the sea, and treasure its wine
G Em A
Its waves remind me, there once was a time
D
There once was a time
