Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It'll be in F for you

Yesterday

I'm in G

But it'll be in F

It goes

E minor to A7th to D minor

Ready

Okay, man

[Verse 2]

Yesterday

All my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh, I believe in yesterday

[Verse 3]

Suddenly

There's a shadow hangin' over me

I'm not half the man I used to be

Oh, yesterday came suddenly

[Verse 4]

Why she had to go

I don't know, she wouldn't say

I said something wrong

Now I long for yesterday

[Verse 5]

Yesterday

Love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday

[Verse 6]

Why she had to go

I don't know, she wouldn't say

I said something wrong

Now I long for yesterday

[Verse 7]

Yesterday

Love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday
