Just once in my life (video)

Em A

1. There's a lotta things I want, a lotta things that I'd like to be,

Em A

but, girl, I don't foresee a rags to riches story for me.

Bb C

There's just one little dream I've got to make come true,

Bb C G

there's just one round I've got to win, I can't be a loser with you,

A

And baby, baby ...

A

Just once in my life let me get what I want,

G

girl, don't let me down !

A

Just once in my life let me hold on to

G A

the good thing I've found, don't let me down.

Em

Baby, say that you'll be stayin'.

Em A

2. 'Cause I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side,

Em A

and if you went away then I'd be left without any pride.

Bb C

I've given up on schemes 'cause every one fell through

Bb C G

I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you

A

And baby, baby ....

+ CHORUS + D - G

D G

+ That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find,

D G

but if you'll stand by me, girl, I'll keep peace of mind.

D G

I can't give you the world, but I will work hard for you, girl,

D G

I'll work hard (every day) all my life (you will see),

Em

if you won't leave me (baby, don't leave)

A

please, don't leave me (oh, no, don't leave) !

G A

Just do this for me, once in my life,

A G

let me get what I want, girl, don't let me down !

A

Just once in my life let me hold on to

G A

the good thing I've found, don't let me down

Just once in my life let me get what I want,
