-3*   7*   7 7*  7  -5*
Just once in a life-time
-3* 4*  4   4*  4  3*
A man knows a  mo-ment
-3*  7*  7   7*  7  -5*
One won-der-ful mo-ment
7     7*    7    7*  -7*
When fate takes his hand
-5*   8  -7* 8 -7* -5*
And this is my mo-ment
-5* 8  -7* 8  8    8*
My once in a life-time
-7*  8 -7*  8  -7*
When I can ex-plore
-5* 8 -7* 8 -7* -5*   -6
A new and ex-ci-ting land

7      7*  -7*-3* 4 
Once there was a time
-5  -5* -6  -5  -3* 7    7
Like no oth-er time be-fore
7     7*   -7*-3*-5* 5   5
Hope was still an o-pen door
-5  -5* -6 -5* -5*
Once up-on a dream
-5*-5 -5* -5-3* 4
And I was un-a-fraid
-5*  -5   -5* -5-3*  5   -6
The dream was so ex-cit-ing
-5* -5 -5* -5 -3*  4
But now I see it fade
-5*-5 -5* -5  7  7
And I am here a-lone

-7  -7*  8 5  -5 
Once up-on a dream
6    -6   7   6   5   -7 -7
You were hea-ven sent to me
-7 -7*  8   5   -6   -5 -5
But it was-n't meant to be
6      -6   7  -7  -6
Now you're just a dream
-6    6  -5  8 -6  -6
Could we be-gin a-gain
7    -7 -6 7  -6
Once up-on a dream
