Portugal The Man - Once Was One Ukulele

Intro: G, Em, G, D, Am


   Em                                   G
Of all of us he had to know he'd never grow
     D                                    Am
He'd never climb he'd never love like the love I know
       Em                        G
As I was two and he was ten they carried me
         D                                 Am
through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas
G                C          G
Once was born of light like you
Am               C         G
Once was one but now we're two
G                  C         G
When I was born of love like you
     Am               C      G
When you were ten and I was two
           Em                           B
There were two monkey's talking soundin like little dogs
          C                   G
they were barkin and b**chin about what was wrong
       EM                           B
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
    C                       G
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines
       Em         B     C        G
Singin we all we all we all turn on
Em        B      C        G
we all we all we all turn off
     Em         G             Am           Em
When gathering all we need to share is the wind
    D                             Am
For anything to die it needs first to begin

Repeat verse and chorus

Bridge: 
A         C      G            A
In time saw your future's not burnin so bright
    C         G             A
and if we too long it'll be less like mine

Repeat Chorus

Guitar Solo- E C B G

End:
Em           G                      Am            Em
Human greed, love and lies would be tricks of mine
D                                  Am
But I was of the future, past, and present time

G                C          G
Once was born of light like you
Am               C         G
Once was one but now we're two
G                  C         G
When I was born of love like you
     Am               C      G
When you were ten and I was two
