 Abm7      A      Em                            
 There's a lot of things I want, a lot of things
                  A  
 that I'd like to be.
     E       Em                                 
 But girl, I don't forsee a rags-to-riches story
 D   A  
 for me.
 F                Bb                C                     
 There's just one little dream I've got to make come true.
 C                                                  
 There's just one round I've gotta win..I can't be a
            A   Em 
 loser with yoooou.
 
 CHORUS:
             A                                       
 Baby, baby, once in my life, let me get what I want.
             E      G   Em        A               
 Girl, don't let me doooown..just once in my life,
                            Em            
 let me hold on to one good thing I found.
       A            Em7                      G       
 Don't let me down, baby, say that you'll be stayin'.
 
 #2.
 E       Em                                           
 Cause I couldn't face a day if you weren't here by my
 A    
 side.
        Em7                                    A     
 If you went away then I'd be left without any pride.
      F     Bb                   C              A       
 I've given up on schemes, cause every one fell through.
            F     C                                   
 I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up
    D   
 on you.
 
 CHORUS:
             A                                       
 Baby, baby, once in my life, let me get what I want.
             E      G   Em        A               
 Girl, don't let me doooown..just once in my life,
                            Em            
 let me hold on to one good thing I found.
       A            Em7                      G       
 Don't let me down, baby, say that you'll be stayin'.

      D                        G            
 That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find.
               D            G                       
 But if you'll stand by me, I'll keep peace of mind.
         D                            G        
 I can't give you the world, but I'll walk with
                      D                      G    
 you, girl..I'll work hard, everyday, all my life.
                        A              D           G  
 So, baby, please don't leave me, just do this for me.
