Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Though  you failed at love and lost
 And  sorrow's turned your heart to frost
 I  will mend your heart again
 Remember the feeling as a child
 When you woke up and morning smiled
 Its time its time its time you felt like that again
 There  is just no percentage  in remembering  the past
 Its  time you learned to  live again and love  at last
 Come  with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind
 And  take a giant step outside your  mind
 You stare at me with disbelief
 You say for you there's no relief
 But girl I swear it won't do you no harm
 Don't sit there in your lonely room
 Just looking back inside that gloom
 Mama that's not were you belong
 Come with me I'll take you where the taste of life is green
 N' Everyday everyday hold on woman just got to be seen
 Come with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind
 And take a giant step outside your mind
 FIRST VERSE, CHORUS
 NOTE: This song really needs two guitars to give it justice, but I've
 worked it out here for one.
