Once You Love - Steve Earle

Intro: DGDA X 2

F               F
A long time ago there lived a man 
F                       D
He had the world in the palm of his hand 
F                        D
Sultans and kings beat a path to his door 
F                        D
He had everything but he still wanted more 
F                        F
One day in spring came a lady so fair 
F                      D
He'd never looked on a beauty so rare 
F                             D
But he didn't trust her so he locked her away 
F                                 D
And his gold lost its luster when love died that day 

CHORUS:
F        F      F             F
Once you love, once you trust it 
F        F         F       F
Once you give your soul is bare 
F         F            F           F
One false move and you know you're busted 
F        F        F        D
Once you love you care 

F                     F
I knew an old man who lived all alone 
     F                       D
In a sad Iittle house at the end of the road 
   F                            D
He sat on his front porch in an old rocking chair 
    F                        D
And everyone swore he'd gone crazy down there 
    F                    F
But no one comes near so how could they know 
   F                        D
He lost someone dear to him once long ago 
   F                           D
He remembers the laughter and  still tastes the tears 
       F                              D
And he still calls her name out after all of these years 

CHORUS: 
F        F      F             F
Once you love, once you trust it 
F        F         F       F
Once you give your soul is bare 
F         F            F           F
One false move and you know you're busted 
F        F        F       
Once you love you care 

        F                  F F
You can keep it all inside 
        F                        F F
You can run but you can't hide 
         F
When you think it's safe outside 
                 F                        F F
Look behind you, love will find you

CHORUS:
F        F      F             F
Once you love, once you trust it 
F        F         F       F
Once you give your soul is bare 
F         F            F           F
One false move and you know you're busted 
F        F        F        
Once you love you care 

F              F        F F
Once you trust it
F              F        F F
Once you care             (Repeat and fade)
