D                           A               G
Remember what I told you in Nevada,
Bm                          A               G
Just before I told you please don’t cry
D                           A               G
No matter where you go, girl, I’ll be with you
Bm                           A               G
If you keep me in your heart and on your mind

Chorus:
Bm                          A             G         D
Cause you’re my once in a lifetime girl
G                            A
And I’m not gonna let you get away
Bm               A             G          D
You’re my once in a lifetime girl
G                  A       D
Hand in hand until our dying day

Verse 2:

We woke up along the bay in San Francisco
Bm                           A               G
With Irish coffee on a blue birthday
D                           A               G
And when we missed the bus to Calistoga
Bm                           A               G
We toasted luck and drank the night away

Chorus:
Bm                          A             G         D
Cause you’re my once in a lifetime girl

And I’m not gonna let you get away
Bm               A             G          D
You’re my once in a lifetime girl
G                  A       D
Hand in hand until our dying day

Chorus: Muted Intrumental (no words)

Cause you’re my once in a lifetime girl
G                                              D    A
And I’m not gonna let you get away
D               A             G          D
You’re my once in a lifetime girl
G                    D           A       D
Hand in hand until our dying day

Verse 3:
D                           A               G
I walked into a pawn shop down in Austin
Bm                           A               G
And I walked out with this silver wedding band
D                           A               G
That ol’ beat up guitar ain’t quite worth a diamond

Bm                           A               G
Somehow I knew you would understand

Chorus:
Bm                          A             G         D
Cause you’re my once in a lifetime girl
G                             A
And I’m not gonna let you get away
Bm               A             G          D
You’re my once in a lifetime girl
G             A       D
Hand in hand until our dying day
G             A       D
Hand in hand until our dying day
