Once Upon a December (From Anastasia)

Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Music by Stephen Flaherty


 -5   6    5     -6   6    5
Danc-ing bears, paint-ed wings,

  6    5 -5  -4  -3  5  -5
things I al-most re-mem-ber.

-5  6  -5   -5  -7    5
And a song some-one sings

 6   5 -5 -4 -3  4   3
once up-on a De-cem-ber.


 -6   6   -6   6   6   -5    -5
Some-one holds me safe and warm.

 6   -5   -5     -6    6  6  -5   -5
Hors-es prance through a sil-ver storm.

-6   6    -6   6    6   -5  -5
Fig-ures danc-ing grace-ful-ly

-4  4   -4  4 -4  5
a-cross my mem-o-ry.


 -7  -6   -7   -6  -6   6    6
Some-one holds me safe and warm.

-6   6     6     -7   -6  -6  6    6
Hors-es prance through a sil-ver storm.

-7   -6   -7  -6   -6    6   6
Fig-ures danc-ing grace-ful-ly

5   -4  5  -4  5  6
a-cross my mem-o-ry.


 6 -6  6    -7 -6 -5
Far a-way, long a-go,

 -6  -5   6  5  4  -5  6
glow-ing dim as an em-ber.

   6   -6   6    6   7   -5 
Things my heart used to know,

 -6    -5   6   -4  4  -4   6
things it yearns to re-mem-ber...


-6  -7   -6   -6   6    7
And  a  song some-one sings,

(slower)
 -6   -5  6  5   4  -4 -7   7
once  up-on  a  De- cem-   ber.
