Once In A While Chords & Lyrics - Shakey Graves

Capo IV

[VERSE 1]
So you [G]wake up thirty-five

With a child and a bride
In [D]time, I know, you've seen it all before
But not on [G]you, no, no, no
No, I don't believe it's [D]true

[CHORUS]
You say, "I've [Bm]lived enough of [A]famous nig[G]hts
All by my [A]lone"
And I would like to [G]be the dark
And I would want her, [A]too

Oh, baby, maybe
Once in a wh[G]ile [D] [G] [D]

[VERSE 2]
So [G]don't tell me, I'll tell you
Oh yeah I've [D]been here for a while
Oh the [G]world ain't free

No, the world ain't free
But it [D]always pays to fake a smile
Oh yeah so [G]save your money and wake up broke
Yeah [D]worry late or worry no (no)
Oh oh [G]write it down in a big old book
Throw it under the bed and never [D]loo[A]k [D]

[CHORUS]
You say, "I've [Bm]lived enough of [A]famous nig[G]hts
All by my [A]lone"
And I would like to [G]be the dark
And I would want her, [A]too

Oh, baby, maybe
Once in a wh[G]ile [D] [G] [D]

[VERSE 3]
'Cause [Bm]here in [G]the big [A]easy
Yeah, [Bm]I would like to be [G]only here
[A]Once in a while
From the bottom of the [G]moon
To the bottom of my [A]glass
[G] It's not far
Yeah, [Bm]don't you [D]see that [A]I
Have nothing b[Bm]ett[A]er[G] to do

Fade out on [Bm] [A] G
