[Verse 1]
I Dused to worry, I used to fret,
I used to wEmake up feeling so upseDt.
DThe future did not look too bright
but nEmow I see it in a diDfferent light. I see it...
[Chorus]
ODne day at a time. OEmne day, and itD's all mine.
If it's a mountain I must climb I do it oEmne day at a tDime.
[Verse 2]
DI met a man with a heavy load.
EmHe said he had a long long way to go.
DI asked, "How do you face what lies ahead?"
EmHe just smiled and then he said, "I face it..."
[Chorus]
ODne day at a time. OEmne day, and itD's all mine.
If it's a mountain I must climb I do it oEmne day at a tDime.
[Verse 3]
DSome days I'm up, some days I'm down.
EmSome days my feet stick to the ground,,
DBut I can take these highs and lows
EmNow that something deep inside me knows...
[Chorus]
ODne day at a time. OEmne day, and itD's all mine.
If it's a mountain I must climb I do it oEmne day at a tDime.
[Verse 4]
DSo take your dreams down from the shelf.
EmBe good, be kind unto yourself.
DJust remember - you will find
EmThe sun comes up one day at a time
[Chorus]
ODne day at a time. OEmne day, and itD's all mine.
If it's a mountain I must climb I do it oEmne day at a tDime.
