[INTRO:] [C6] [G7] [C6] [G7] [C6] [G7] [C6] [G7]

[VERSE 1]
[C6]Once upon a time, I was on my own

Once upon a time, like you've never known
[Dm/G]Once upon a time, I would be impressed
[C6]Once upon a time, my life would be obsessed
[Dm/G]Once upon a time, once upon a day when
[C6]I was in my prime, once along the way

[CHORUS]
If you [F]want to [G]know my [C]secret
Don't come [F]running [G]after [C]me
For [F]I am [G]just a [C]painter
Passing [Dm]through in histo[C]ry [G7] [C6] [G7]

[VERSE 2]
[C6]Yesterday is gone, yesterday's alright

Yesterday belongs, in my dreams at night
[Dm/G]Yesterday is swell, yesterday is great
[C6]Yesterday is strong, remembering can wait
[Dm/G]Once upon a time, once upon a day when
[C6]I was in my prime, once along the way

[CHORUS]
If you [F]want to [G]know an [C]answer
I can't [F]turn your [G]life a[C]round
For [F]I am [G]just a [C]painter
Passing [Dm]through the under[C]ground [G7] [C6] [G7]

[VERSE 3]
[C6]I was in my stride, always at my game

Here comes Mister Cool, along the walk of fame
[Dm/G]I was in demand, always in control
[C6]The world was in my hands, my touch had turned to gold
[Dm/G]Once upon a time, I was in a daze, when
[C6]Everyday I turned, hearts along the way

[CHORUS]
If you [F]want to [G]know my [C]secret
Don't come [F]running [G]after [C]me
For [F]I am [G]just a [C]painter
Passing [Dm]through in histo[C]ry [G7] [C6] [G7]

[VERSE 4]
[C6]Now that I am old, let me rest a spell

All that I am told, I can never tell
[Dm/G]Never in my life, never will it pass
[C6]I am still alone, remembering at last
[Dm/G]Once upon a time, once upon a day, when
[C6]I was in my prime, once along the way

[CHORUS]
If you [F]want to [G]know an [C]answer
I can't [F]turn your [G]life a[C]round
For [F]I am [G]just a [C]painter
Passing [Dm]through the under[C]ground

[CHORUS]
If you [F]want to [G]know my [C]secret
Don't come [F]running [G]after [C]me
For [F]I am [G]just a [C]painter
Passing [Dm]through in histo[C]ry [G7] [C6] [G7]
