The Hollies


Tom: C

INTRO: G     C   G   Em   D

       G
In the city, where no one speaks
             C
Where people living, just to make ends meet
    Em
And looking back over their shoulders
                 C
At the road they should be on


           G
It gets me wishing I could catch a wave
             C
Right out of nowhere and be on my way
    Em
I'm drinking red wine in the sunshine
               C              ~ ~
And sleeping a-way too long


PD-C HORUS:
Am                                 Bm
Lots of strange things can change, ain't that the way
    F                                D
You think you got it figured out, it blows you away


CHORUS:
C
Yesterday's gone, baby, don't you know
       G
You'll never get it back, gonna let it go
Em
Yesterday's gone, it's a one night show
           D
But you've got tomorrow, yeah
C
Yesterday's gone, look at how you've grown
      G
You'd never give it up, 'cause you're not alone
Em
Yesterday's gone
             D                               C       D
Don't have a heart of stone, but yeah, yeah, yeah


           G
Ain't it a pity the way we live
       C
Always thinking that there's more than this
        Em
Getting sick and tired of trying to find
                    C
Someone else we can get along


          G
We're reminiscing about the long lost days
       C
Like a movie that I might replay
     Em
When every day lasted a lifetime
                C           ~ ~
And summer went on and on


PD-C HORUS:
Am                                 Bm
Lots of strange things can change, ain't that the way
    F                                D
You think you got it figured out, it blows you away


CHORUS:
C
Yesterday's gone, baby, don't you know
       G
You'll never get it back, gonna let it go
Em
Yesterday's gone, it's a one night show
           D
But you've got tomorrow, yeah
C
Yesterday's gone, look at how you've grown
      G
You'd never give it up, 'cause you're not alone
Em
Yesterday's gone
             D                               C  
Don't have a heart of stone, but yeah, yeah, yeah


INSTRUMENTAL: C   Em   C   D   C   Em   C   D
