     Bbm           Gb         Db AbThe tears I never let myself cry    but that was
 Ebm                             GbYesterday love was torn from my hands
                 DbBut it's not the end of my world
                      EbmJust a little hard to understand
                                  BbmThat was yesterday but today life goes on
                      DbYou won't find me in yesterday's world
                 EbmNow yesterday's gone
                                    BbmGoodbye yesterday now it's over and done
                        DbStill I hope somewhere deep in your heart
