F
Once in a while
You end up in a town
    A#
Its doors open up for you
F
Step outside to look up and see
     A#
The sky’s looking back at you
     C           A#
The lights rain down

F
Once in a while
You get a little help
    A#
You least expected too
F
Look in the mirror
A couple times you see
   A#
If all of it is true
          C
And your mind’s
             A#
On a bed of clouds

Chorus:
                       F
Once in a Long, Long While
                       A#
Once in a Long, Long While
Once in a Long, Long While

Once in a while
You get a little lost
In the fault between the trees
Stumbling out upon the waiting arms
Of the woman of your dreams
And your love
Comes raining down

Chorus:
Once in a Long, Long While
Once in a Long, Long While
Once in a Long, Long While
Once in a Long, Long While
Once in a Long, Long While
