F        Em7        A7                 Dm     C A#
Yesterday,  all my troubles seemed so far away
        C                       F
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
 C  Dm  G7       A#     F
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly

Chorus:
Em  A7  Dm   C  A#          Gm6      C7        F
Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say
Em A7   Dm   C     A#          Gm6     C7     F
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday

Chorus

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday
