Tom Pacheco - There Was A Time Ukulele Chords

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
