Yesterday,  all my troubles
 seemed so far  away
Now  it looks  as though they're here  to stay,
oh  I be-lieve  in yesterday
Suddenly,  I'm not half
 the man I used  to be
Theres  a shadow  hanging over  me,
oh  yesterday  came suddenly
Why she had  to go
 I dont know  she wouldn't say
I said some-  thing  wrong
 now I long  for yesterday
Yesterday,  love was such
 an easy game  to play
Now  I need  a place to hide  away,
oh  I be- lieve  in yesterday
 Chorus then again, then :
Mm  mm  mm mm mm  mm
