G#m           E
I thought I knew you well

    B                      F#
But all this time I could never tell

G#m        E                 B             F#
I let you get away haunts me every night & every day


(Intro-twice)


G#m          E            B              F#
You were the only one the only friend I counted on

G#m                    E
How could I watch you walk away

         B                     F#
I'd give anything to have you here today

    Bbm           Gb            Db  Ab      Bbm
But now I stand alone with my pride    and dream

             Gb          Db  Ab
That you're still by my side    but that was

Ebm                              Gb
Yesterday I had the world in my hands

                 Db
But it's not the end of my world

                         Ebm
Just a slight change of plans

                                   Bbm
That was yesterday but today life goes on

                   Db
No more hiding in yesterday cause yesterday's gone


(Intro-twice)

G#m             E
Love my love I gave it all

           B                    F#
Thought I saw the light when I heard you call

G#m           E
Life that we both could share

       B                F#
Has deserted me left me in despair

    Bbm           Gb            Db  Ab
But now I stand alone with my pride    fighting back

     Bbm           Gb         Db Ab
The tears I never let myself cry    but that was

 Ebm                             Gb
Yesterday love was torn from my hands

                 Db
But it's not the end of my world

                      Ebm
Just a little hard to understand

                                  Bbm
That was yesterday but today life goes on

                      Db
You won't find me in yesterday's world

                 Ebm
Now yesterday's gone

                                    Bbm
Goodbye yesterday now it's over and done

                        Db
Still I hope somewhere deep in your heart

                          F#    G#m      E
Yesterday will live on E----------------12-
