  D#m
I played the ones you know
  F+
I took you all the way
              A#m
But that was yesterday
  D#m
I wore your favorite clothes
  F7
I said the things you'd say
            A#m   A#7
That was yesterday

          D#m9
So if you loved me so much
  F7
Why'd you go? (Why'd you go?)
A#m
Keep yourself back
                 F#maj7
Keep on lying, oh
           F7        A#m
I can only be what I am
Dive in, smiling

Chorus:
                D#m
Life is not the same
         F7     A#m  A#7
If we're miles away
            D#m
I was your champion
      F7              A#m  A#7
I did everything your way

We both swim out to sea
You lost me willingly
But that was yesterday
(That was yesterday)
You knew it would get dark
You made sure I would need you
In every way

So if you loved me so much
Why'd you go? (Why'd you go?)
Keep yourself back
Keep on lying, oh
I can only be what I am
Dive in, smiling

Chorus:
Life is not the same
If we're miles away
I was your champion
I did everything your way
Life is not the same
If we're miles away
I was your champion
I did everything to help you stay
