Once In A Lifetime
Talking Heads
Key : D
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
D

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D
 And you may find yourself
Living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself
In another part of the world
And you may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself
In a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself,
Well... how did I get here?

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
            D
Letting the days go by,
        G
Let the water hold me down
            D
Letting the days go by,
      G
Water flowing underground
         D
Into the blue again
          G
After the money's gone
          D
Once in a lifetime,
      G            D
Water flowing underground

[Verse 2]
---------------------
And you may ask yourself,
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself,
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself,
This is not my beautiful house
And you may tell yourself,
This is not my beautiful wife



[Bridge]
---------------------
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D
 Water dissolving and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Under the water, carry the water
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean
Water dissolving and water removing

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
            D
Letting the days go by
        G
Let the water hold me down
            D
Letting the days go by
      G
Water flowing underground
         D
Into the blue again
         G
Into the silent water
          D
Under the rocks and stones
         G
There is water underground
            D
Letting the days go by,
        G
Let the water hold me down
            D
Letting the days go by,
      G
Water flowing underground
         D
Into the blue again
          G
After the money's gone
          D
Once in a lifetime,
      G            D
Water flowing underground

[Verse 4]
---------------------
You may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
You may ask yourself
Where does that highway go to?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right? Am I wrong?
And you may say to yourself
My God! What have I done?



[Outro]
---------------------
Same as it ever was
C     G
 Same as it ever was
D
 Same as it ever was
C    G
 And look where my hand was
D
 Time isn't holding up,
C     G
 Time isn't after us
D
 Same as it ever was
C     G
 Same as it ever was
D
 Same as it ever was
C     G
 Same as it ever was
D
 Same as it ever was
C     G
 Same as it ever was
D
 Letting the days go by
C     G
 Same as it ever was
D
 Here a twister comes,
C                   G
 Here comes the twister
D
 Same as it ever was
C     G
 Same as it ever was
D
 Same as it ever was
C     G
 Same as it ever was

[Fade Out]
---------------------
D                   C
 Once in a lifetime,
        G             D
Let the water hold me down
                       C
Letting the days go by,
      G            D     C G
Water flowing underground
