Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: GUEST,Maurice Date: 25 Aug 02 - 07:29 AM I can remember this much... One time and one time only Been such a long time lonely One time and all time it will be Been waiting such a long time Each time has been the wrong time Until you came to me. I spent my hungry young years running wild There was a lot I had to do And I spent cities like a handful of change But I never stopped looking for you. ...that's where my memory gives out...I don't think I've heard this song since the '60's. I think there's just one more verse anyway. |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: Peter K (Fionn) Date: 25 Aug 02 - 01:15 PM I've got it on the Outward Bound album. I'll find some way of playing it to get the lyrics, if no-one else comes up with them. |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: Jack the Sailor Date: 25 Aug 02 - 01:19 PM I can do the lyrics, I'm pretty good with lyrics. But I'm afraid that the chords would take me a long time and that even then I wouldn't get them quite right. For anyone who is interested I will listen to the album several times and post the lyrics later today. |

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: raredance Date: 27 Aug 02 - 12:12 AM I've been playing it for 35 years as a three chord song in D, nothing fancy or complicated. (well actually years ago I used to do it in E, but the high notes aren't as easy as they once were). rich r |

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: Jack the Sailor Date: 27 Aug 02 - 08:42 PM Thanks rich r, I had almost worked it out to that point. I have an "A" at the end of this line?

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: Tattie Bogle Date: 28 Aug 02 - 07:18 PM Much as above, but I would agree about the A in the line above: also, I would do a quick A/D on "on - ly" and "lone - ly" after the G. Try It! Tattie B |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Tom Paxton 'One Time and One Time From: raredance Date: 28 Aug 02 - 10:54 PM Yah, the "A" belongs there. I'm not too good at playing air guitar while I try to write down chords. You can also throw a Bm in the middle of that line if you want to vary the D. A7's work fine also. I used the 7ths all the time when I used to sing it in E, because a B7 is a lot easier for me to play than a B rich r |
Subject: Lyr Add: ONE TIME AND ONE TIME ONLY (Tom Paxton) From: Jim Dixon Date: 10 Oct 08 - 03:13 PM These lyrics were posted in a BS thread where they're not likely to be found: ONE TIME AND ONE TIME ONLY (Tom Paxton) 1. I spent my hungry young years running wild. There was a lot I had to do, And I spent cities like a handful of change, But I never quit looking for you. CHORUS: One time and one time only, Been such a long time lonely. One time and all time it will be, Been waiting such a long time. Each time had been the wrong time Until you came to me. 2. I looked for you in every face I saw. I could not find you anywhere. Then finally one day I quit trying at all, Looked up and saw you standing there. 3. I don't mind telling you what's on my mind. It's no big secret any more. I have no plans at all for moving on. That's one thing I never been for. [Recorded by Tom Paxton on "Outward Bound" (1966), "I Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound" (1999), and "Forever Changing: The Golden Age of Elektra 1963-1973" (2007); and by The Mitchell Trio on "That's the Way It's Gonna Be/Violets of Dawn" (2003).] |
