[C]Yesterday's gone like the [F]oc[C]ean
[F] [Am]Taken by the tide [G]
[C]Like the night and the [F]mor[C]ning
[F]Like a [Am]bird when she [G]flies
[Am]Yesterday's gone and it's [Em]only now
A [Am]place where today used to [Em]be
[F]Lost in the space of fo[C]rever and e[Esus4]ternity [E]
But tomorrow the sun will be born in
The twinkling of an eye
Father and mother of morning
Hope of today's gone by
The beginning of all that has happened
Yet the ending of all that's to be
Just a rhyme in the line of the song only time can sing
Ah, but [Am]I've read the [Am/G]book long be[F]fore
[D/F#] [G] [G]/[G#] [Am]
I had learned how to read between the lines
[Am]\[G] [F] [C] [Esus4] [E]
I saw only what I could see through my eyes not my mind
God it takes a long [Am]time
[F] [Am]Taken by the tide [G]
[C]Like the night and the [F]mor[C]ning
[F]Like a [Am]bird when she [G]flies
[Am]Yesterday's gone and it's [Em]only now
A [Am]place where today used to [Em]be
[F]Lost in the space of fo[C]rever and e[Esus4]ternity [E]
But tomorrow the sun will be born in
The twinkling of an eye
Father and mother of morning
Hope of today's gone by
The beginning of all that has happened
Yet the ending of all that's to be
Just a rhyme in the line of the song only time can sing
Ah, but [Am]I've read the [Am/G]book long be[F]fore
[D/F#] [G] [G]/[G#] [Am]
I had learned how to read between the lines
[Am]\[G] [F] [C] [Esus4] [E]
I saw only what I could see through my eyes not my mind
God it takes a long [Am]time
