Version 1 Version 2

            YESTERDAY  IS  HERE


E7          Am            E            Am              E7
If you want money in your pocket and a top hat on your head,
  Am               C           E7              E
a hot meal on your table and a blanket on your bed.


     Am           C      Dm7         Am
Well today's grey skies, tomorrow is tears.
       F                 E            Am    E7 
You'll have to wait till yesterday is here.


         Am                E            Am           E7
Well I'm going to New York City and I'm leaving on a train
    Am             C                      E7           E 
and if you want to stay behind, wait till I come back again.


     Am           C      Dm7         Am
Well today's grey skies, tomorrow is tears.
       F                 E            Am     E7
You'll have to wait till yesterday is here.


Am             F  Am                 F
If you want to go where the rainbows end,
       Am      F       E7  E
you'll have to say goodbye.
Am                  F     Am       F
All our dreams come true, baby up ahead
         Am            F        E7sus4  E7
and it's out were your memories lie.


         Am          E                 Am              E7
Well the road is out before me and the moon is shining bright.
        Am           C           E7          E
What I want you to remember as I disappear tonight


     Am           C      Dm7         Am
Well today's grey skies, tomorrow is tears.
       F                 E            Am    E7
You'll have to wait till yesterday is here.


     Am           C      Dm7         Am
Well today's grey skies, tomorrow is tears.
       F                 E            Am    
You'll have to wait till yesterday is here.
       F                 E7           Am    
You'll have to wait till yesterday is here.
       F                 E     E7     Am    
You'll have to wait till yesterday is here.
