Verse 1
Once Upon A Time, I Was A ABaker And EveryEbody Was ImF#mpressed  E​
But I DDidn’t Need Approval Because I Already Knew I Was The EBest
Everything I Made Was A AMasterpiece, It All ETaste Like F#mHeaven
But EThen, UnDfortunately, I Turned ESeven

Verse 2
Once Upon A Time, I Was A APainter And EveryEbody Said, "F#mWow"
"Girl, EYou're So DClever, You're So Talented" And I AEgreed And I Stood Proud
I Painted AMountains, I Painted Blue Lakes E​
I Paintеd F#mPeople, I Drew Portraits  E​
But Then I DDrew My Dad And Held It Up Beside Him
And I ERealised That It Looked Nothing Like Him

Chorus
And F#mPart Of Me Wished NEobody Had TDold Her
But I F#mGuess It's Just A PEart Of Getting ODlder, Hm  D  E​

Verse 3
Once Upon A Time I Was A ARunner
I Was The EFastest In The F#mTown
And They'd All Say, "NoEbody Will OutDrun Her
'Cause She's The Fastest Girl AEround"
Once Upon A Time, I Was A ADancer, It Took No Effort E​
I Was A F#mScientist, I Was An Expert
E I Was A DGenius, And I Thought Nothin' Of It
E Until They Told Me That I Wasn’t

Chorus
And F#mPart Of Me Wished NEobody Had TDold Her
But I F#mGuess It's Just A PEart Of Getting ODlder

Bridge
When You Learn You're SupAposed To Colour Perfectly Inside Of The Lines
And You’re SupEposed To Win At Least A Couple Hundred Of Times
Before You F#mEven Have The Right To Think Or SEay Or Show You’re Any Good At ADll
They’ll Tell You That There’s AOnly One Right Way, One Paved Path
Or You’ll EMake A Fool Of Yourself And Everyone Will Laugh
They’ll F#mMake You Feel Like Everybody’s WEaiting There To Watch You As You FDall

Outro
They F#mSigh, They Tell Me I'm A DEreamer, They Say, "Someone's Gotta WDake Her"
But I'll Just F#mSmile, I'll Say, "OEnce Upon A Time, I Was A BAaker"  E  D  E  A​

CAPO: 3

Verse 1
They'd Ask You What You'd ELike

And You'd Say "What My Sister's Having"
Same New E/D#Bike

Same New Shoes

When You Were 4

And I, 6 Or 7
Always C#mRight In Your Eyes
And, Oh, I Led The Way With BPride Those AYears Ago

Verse 2
It Turned To ENight

Close Out The Door

C Up In Bed
But Leave On The E/D#Light

We'd Read Books
You'd Read Yours And I'd Read C#mMine

Pre-Chorus
Oh, I Still C#mSee You At The EBdge Of Your BAed
With Your C#mFreckles And Those CBs On Your HeadA​

Chorus
I Never Thought I'd ELearn So Much From You
And For The Most Part IB'm Just Proud
But I C#mGuess A Part Of Me Just Thought It'd ABlways Be The Other Way ArAound
I Never Thought I'd ELearn So Much From You
I Guess I Thought I Knew It BAll
I'm C#mSorry I'm Just Not As Great As BBoth Of Us Had Thought When We Were SAmall

Verse 3
They'd Ask You "What's Your EName?"

And You'd Look At Me And You'd Stand Behind
See You Were E/D#Shy

The Year That You Were Turning 7, I Was 9
But You Soon C#mGrew To Be Quite Talkative

And Grew To Be Quite Sure
B  ADoesn't Seem All That Long Ago When Were Both Sat On The Floor
When We Drew EPictures Of The Places That We'd Visit In Our Dreams
Turned In To E/D#Stories

Then To Poems

When You Were 12, And I, 14
The Year I C#mRealised I Wasn't Always Right

And That One Hurt
I BAlways AThought That I Knew More

And That Was Just The Way It Worked

Pre-Chorus
Because I Still C#mSee You At The EBdge Of Your BAed
With Your C#mFreckles And Those CBs On Your HeadA​

Chorus
I Never Thought I'd ELearn So Much From You
And For The Most Part IB'm Just Proud
But I C#mGuess A Part Of Me Just Thought It'd ABlways Be The Other Way ArAound
I Never Thought I'd ELearn So Much From You
I Guess I Thought I Knew It BAll
I'm C#mSorry I'm Just Not As Great As BBoth Of Us Had Thought When We Were SAmall

Verse 4
Now I Know I'm AProbably Sounding Selfish
Oh, I BProbably Sound A Fool
'Cause Of ECourse I Want The E/D#Whole World Wide And C#mOpen For You TBoo
AI Was Just Much Better As A BYounger Older Sister
I EHope That It's OE/D#kay That For A C#mMoment I Just MBissed Her
But I AKnow How Far BYou'll Go
I Don't Know It EAllE/D#     C#m    B​
But I Know It's ALovely Who We Are
Though It's BLovely Who We Were When We Were ESmall

Verse 1
I'm ETwo Days Into College, And I'm Three Lectures Behind
There's This BGuy, Let's Name Him Colin, He Says He Wants To Be Mine
But It Doesn't Really C#mSit With Me Quite Right 'Cause He Doesn't Really Like The Things I Like
And I Keep AAccidentally Locking Myself Out Of My Dorm In The Middle Of The Night
I EWake Up Kinda Wired, And I Wake Up Kinda Cold
And I BWake Up Kinda Tired, But I'll Just Sleep In When I'm Old
See, I C#mDon't Like Breaking Rules, But Don't Like Doing As I'm Told
So, I Just AFloat Around And Keep My Head Down And Hope My Life Unfolds

Chorus
And EЕverybody's Telling Me That G#7I'm Doin' So Wеll
I C#mTry To Trust Them, Honestly, I FAind It Hard To Tell

That BGuy That We Named Colin, He's So Handsome, He's So Kind
My C#mFriends Tell Me I'm Crazy, Say I Take It Way Too Far
'Cause I ATold Him That It's Over 'Cause He Doesn't Play Guitar
I'm Only ETwo Days Into College, And My Bedroom Is A Mess
There's Just BSo Much That I Want To Do That I Have Not Done Yet
There's Just C#mSo Much That I Want To Say And Far Too Little Breath
Oh, My AMind, It Runs So Far Away, It's Easy To Forget

Chorus
That To EEverybody Else, It Looks Like I'm G#7Doin' So Well
I C#mTry To See It, Honestly, I Find It HAard To Tell
If EI've Done Wrong, Or I've Done Right
I BNeed A Good Night's Sleep Tonight
They C#mSaid, "Go Out," I Said, "Alright"
I AThink I Won't, I Maybe Might

I Prob'ly Should Just Take It Slow
I'll Be BAll Good, But, God, I Know

Outro
The AOne Thing That's ImBportant Above EEveryB/D#thing C#mElse
Is To ALearn Not To Put BAll This Heavy EPressure B/D#On  MyC#mself
I BTry BeAlieve It When I BSay
"If It's Meant To EHappen, It'll B/D#Happen AnyC#mway
BI'll Be AFine"
I've Got BTime

Verse 2
"Oh To Be A Child Again," TAhey Said
Look At Them, They Have No EFears At All

They'll Chase Their Dreams
They'll Get Up If TheF#my Fall

But I Think The Main Component
It's Not DBravery

I Think It's Just Living In The Moment
They Don't Get ACaught Up In The Future

Or Caught Up In The Past
Or ECaught Up Thinking About The Things They Don't Already Have
When You're A F#mChild

You Don't Wish Your Life Away
Or DLong For Other Times That Isn't Now, That's Not Today

Chorus
And We ACan Too

If We Really Try
All You EHave To Do

Is Open Your Eyes
The F#mWorld Is Just The Same

As It Has Always Been
The DBeauty Is Alive

It's Eager To Be Seen
So Don't DisAmiss The Colours

Don't Dismiss The Sounds
Find EComfort In The Rain

Find Magic In The Clouds
As We Get F#mOlder

We Fall Into A Spell
E To DBlame It On The World And Not To Look Inside Ourselves

Verse 3
Look Out Of Your DWindow
Look Onto The EStreet
Think Of Those You've AMet
And Think Of A/G#Those You've Yet To MF#meet
The EMagic Is ADround Us
There's Far More Than EEnough
But I Think That We Don't ANotice It As A/G#Much When We Grow UF#mp   E​
Just Take It DIn
EMaybe Then
You'll Feel Like A Child AAgain E  F#m    D​

Outro
Oh, To Be A Child AAgain

Verse 1
Next BWeek I Sing In Choir

When We Stand Around The Tree
I’ve F#Never Missed A Christmas

From 2010 To '23
Every G#mYear I Get A Solo
Every F#Year I Learn The Words
I EUsed To Get So Nervous

It'd Make My Stomach Hurt
But I BAlways Powered Through

And Over Time It Got Much Better
F#Younger Me Was Pretty Shy

But Younger Me Was Clever
So I’d DisG#mtract Myself While I Waited For My VF#erse

And It Took Forever
E Younger Me

I’d Love To Tell Her

Chorus
Don’t Gotta Be Perfect All The BTime My Love
No, You Don’t See It But You’ve F#Come So Far
I Know You're Tryna Do Your G#mBest
But Just Lay Your Mind To F#Rest
People Will Love You For The EWay You Are
So When I'm Singing In The Bleak MidBwinter

And Oh, Let It Snow
BI'm Thinking No
Where'd It F#Go?
F#All The Time

I Guess It's Fine
But I Just Find That There's G#mSomething About SF#inging Around ThEe Tree
That Makes Me G#mThink Of All The TF#hings I’d Love To SaEy To Younger MeB​

Verse 2
Next BWeek I Sing In Choir

When We Stand Beneath The Lights
Hard To BeF#lieve After The Next One

I’ve Spent 14 Nights
Over G#m14 Different Years SF#inging To The Crowd
Oh, I EUsed To Get So Nervous

I'd Have To Look Down At The Ground
But Oh, BI Always Powered Through

And I Always Did It Well
Younger F#Me Was Good At Hiding It

So People Couldn't Tell
That I'd Count To G#m10
And I Held My Breath When I Stood There F#Waiting For My Cue
EYounger Me Knew Lots Of Things

But How I Wish He Knew

Chorus
Don’t Gotta Be Perfect All The BTime My Love
No, You Don’t See It But You’ve F#Come So Far
I Know You're Tryna Do Them G#mProud
But My Darling You're AlF#lowed
To Have Things To Figure EOut

And Not Always Tryna Aim Above The Bar
Singing Shine The BLight

And O Holy Night
I’m Thinking Over The F#Past

Over The Years
F#All Of The Laughs

All Of The Tears
Oh, There’s Just G#mSomething About SF#inging Round ThEat Tree
That Makes Me G#mThink Of All The TF#hings I'd Love To SaEy To Younger MeF#​

Verse 3

CAPO: 4

Chorus
I Put BOil On Our Fire

Just A Drop Every Night
'Cause F#/A#I Get SG#mcared Of What'll Happen

If It Doesn't Stay Alight

Verse 1
And F#/A#At This SEtage It Only Flickers

And It Leaves Me Feeling Torn
'Cause To F#Have It Is So Comforting

But It Doesn't Keep Me Warm
And I Think BBack To The Days

When It Would Blaze All On Its Own
It's F#/A#Such A HG#maze In Many Ways
But I Remember It Felt Like HomeF#/A#​
And I've ETried To Be Real Careful

Making Sure The Flame Sticks Around
But F#Deep Down I Know Well
It's Better Off Letting It Just Go Out B​

Chorus
I Put BOil On Our Fire

Try To Make It A Little Stronger
F#/A#Try To MG#make It A Little Brighter

Make It Last Just A Little Longer

Verse 2
F#/A#Oh, I GEuess That If It Has To Wilt Away So Soon, So Be It
It's F#Sad That We Had Everything

But Simply Didn't See It
'Cause It Was BBeautiful, Y'know

Oh, It Would Melt The Coldest Snow
F#/A#    And It Was RG#med, And Blue, And Gold
And Somehow It Didn't Show That F#/A#It Was FEading
And Now I'm Trying To Figure Out If It's WorthF# Saving

Chorus
'Cause I Put BOil On Our Fire

Just A Drop Every Night
F#/A#Just EnG#mough To Keep Us On The Verge

Of Barely Getting By

Bridge
And F#/A#You Still AEct Like You Don't Notice

And I Know I Should Ask Why
But I F#Know Exactly What You Do

You Sit There And You Sigh
And Then You BMake Me Feel Like I'm The Problem

And Then I'd Probably Cry
And F#/A#Then YG#mou'd Feel Bad And Say You're Sorry

And Then You'll Say You'll Try
And Then F#/A#We'll Go 'REound And Around Like Broken Records

And I'll Keep Pouring Fuel On Embers
Well, F#Hold On Tight To Us

When It's So Damn Obvious

Verse 3
That Our BFlF#/A#ame Is DG#mead
But We F#/A#Play PretEend
That We Don't F#Know
And I BLove F#/A#You  SG#mtill
Maybe I F#/A#Always WEill
But I Have To F#Go  B​
