Em(riff 1)
Walking along a crowded street
I see thousands of faces before me.
Then I see a face that I used to know
Long ago in my life story.
Em(riff 1)
It starts me thinking about the things you said
For your image is still inside me.
The past is gone but in my head
You're still walking along beside me.
D(harm-solo Guitar) E  
Is it something playing tricks with my eyes
DOr just an illuF#msion deceiving Eme,
DOr is it someone in a Edisguise
DOr visions of things thF#mat used to Ebe?
But Clately I've been gGoing to
All the Dmplaces that we once Fknew,
And Cjust when I think that I am free of Gyou
DmI keep seeing the things that remind me of Fyou,
And Cjust when I think you're out of my Ghead
DmI hear a song that you sang or see a book that you Fread.
Then you're in Cevery bar, you're in every Gcafe
You're driving Dmevery car, I see you Feveryday,
EmBut you're not Bmreally there 'cos you belong to yesCteBrdCayD.C  B  E

No more living in the past,
Yesterday's gone and that's a fact,
Now there's no more looking back.
Got to be hard,
D(harm-solo Guitar) E  
Yeah, look straight ahead.
DThat s the only way it's F#mgoing to Ebe,
DYesterday's gone and that's a Efact,

Perhaps Csomeday I'll stop needing Gyou,
Then Dmmaybe one day I'll be free of Fyou.
But Clately I've been going Gto
DmAll the places that remind me of Fyou.
And jCust when I think you're out of my Ghead

No more looking back,
No more living in the past.
Yesterday's gone, that's a fact,
Now there's no more looking back.
No more looking back.
No more living in the past.
Yesterday's gone, that's a fact.
Now there's no more looking back.
