C        Bm7       E7                 Am       G F
Yesterday,  all my troubles seemed so far away

Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say

I  said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
[Verse 3]

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday

I  said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
