C               Cmaj7 C
Once in a while
        F          Fmaj7 F
Someone comes along
     Am               Em
That one in a million heart
   Bb                G  G7
So pure and so strong
         F              Ab
They can face up to the tears
    C                    A7   Bm C#m7
And somehow still find a smile
   Dm
If we only get
G               C    F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7  C  F Fmaj7
Every once in a while

C               Cmaj7 C
Once in a while,
        F           Fmaj7 F
Someone had the eyes,
     Am               Em
That one in a million look,
     Bb               G  G7
That never tells lies,
         F               Fm
They can get you on your feet,
   C               A7   Bm
To walk that extra mile,
Dm
we only see
G                C    F C
Every once in a while

G#                     D#
Thats why we call them heroes,
F#                      C#
Thats why we know their names,
    E                       B
And once you've heard their stories
       A#
You're never quite the same,
F#                     C#
Thats why we call them heroes,
E                        B
the best thing they ever do,
   G#m                     C#
Is point to the best in us all,
         C#m              F#   G  G7
And say "If I can you can too"

C              Cmaj7 C
Once in a while,
        F              Fmaj7 F
I still hear his voice,
     Am               Em
That one in a million sound,
     Bb                G  G7
Like two laughing boys,
         F             Fm
He would hate it if we cried,
     C             A7   Bm  C#m7
That never was his style,
      Dm
Oh we still miss him,
G               C    Cmaj7 C
Every once in a while
