Once in a While Lyrics

Chord Key:
Riff 1:
|.-7~~~9b~10b9p7~~~-----------/7-.|
Riff 2:
To me, it sounds like riff 2 is part of the bass line, but for playing solo acoustic, it
pretty good to add it in.
Chorus:
When you close your eyes
Do you like what you see?
Inside your mind
And do you like to dream
About the stars above
Once in a while?
Play (Riff 1) x2
over the verse chords of Am, G, D/F#
Verse 1:
Am G D/F# (Riff 2)
Don't go to the otherside
Am G D/F# (Riff 2)
For nothin' at all
Am G D/F# (Riff 2)
And it'll make it worth your while
Am G D/F# (No Riff 2)
Gonna break down that wall
F(single upstroke strum, let ring out)
Gonna take the fall
(with acoustic and doubling distorted electrics)
Play:
(Riff 1) x2
over the verse chords of Am, G, D/F#
Am G D/F# (Riff 2)
Don't go to the other side
Am G D/F# (Riff 2)
You might mess up that hair
Am G D/F# (Riff 2)
Just wait you might change your mind
Am G D/F# (No Riff 2)
To think that people might care
About your hair anyway
(with acoustic and doubling electric guitars)
Play:
(Riff 1 and Solo) x4
over the verse chords of Am, G, D/F#
(Since I'm not one for doing exactly the same solo, I'd just pull out a slide and go
in A Blues or something. Whatever floats your boat. He does use a slide though, for just
every solo/interlude in the song.)
Bridge:
The chords here are strummed once, and where the chord is in parenthesis, it is implied,
it's not actually played, but it's tonality is there.
Don't go to the other side
Just get down on your knees
And show me what you are made of
I'm begging you please
Just please go away
CHORUS x2 (second time to end with some solo guitar work in A)
Don't go to the other side
Once in a while
Once in a while
Don't go to the other side
Once in a while
F(let ring out to end)
Onnnnnnnnnnce in a while
A Blues Scale:
