Once in a Lifetime (Live)

[Verse 1]

You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack

You may find yourself in another part of the world

You may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile

You may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife

You may ask yourself, "Well... how did I get here?"

[Chorus]

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by, water flowing underground

Into the blue again after the money's gone

Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

[Verse 2]

You may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"

You may ask yourself, "Where is that large automobile?"

You may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful house"

You may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife"

[Chorus]

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by, water flowing underground

Into the blue again after the money's gone

Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

[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]

Water dissolving and water removing

There is water at the bottom of the ocean

Remove the water, carry the water

Remove the water from the bottom of the ocean

[Chorus]

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by, water flowing underground

Into the blue again, after the money's gone

Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

Into the blue again, into the silent water

Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground

Letting the days go by, into the silent water

Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

[Verse 4]

You may ask yourself, "What is that beautiful house?"

You may ask yourself, "Where does that highway lead to?"

You may ask yourself, "Am I right? Am I wrong?"

You may say to yourself, "My God! What have I done?"

[Chorus]

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by, water flowing underground

Into the blue again, after the money's gone

Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

Into the blue again, into the silent water

Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground

Letting the days go by, into the silent water

Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

[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

[Outro]

Time isn't holding us, time isn't after us

Time isn't holding us, time isn't holding us

Time isn't holding us, time isn't after us

Time isn't holding us

Letting the days go by

Letting the days go by

Letting the days go by

Once in a lifetime

Letting the days go by

Letting the days go by

Letting the days go by

Once in a lifetime
