Once Upon Along Ago
    Paul McCartney


    Picking up scales and broken chords
    Puppy dog tails in the house of lords
    Tell me darling, what can it mean?

    Making up moons in a minor key
    What have those tunes got to do with me?
    Tell me darling, where have you been?

    Once upon along ago
    Children searched for treasure
    Nature's plan went hand in hand with pleasure.
    Such pleasure.

    Blowing balloons on a windy day
    Desolate dunes with a lot to say
    Tell me darling, what have you seen?

    Once upon along ago
    Children searched for treasure
    Nature's plan went hand in hand with pleasure.
    My pleasure.

    Playing guitars on an empty stage
    Counting the bars of an iron cage
    Tell me darling, what can it mean?

    Picking up scales and broken chords
    Puppy dog tails in the house of lords
    Tell me darling, what can it mean?

    Once upon along ago...
