[Verse 1]
G C
It wasn’t really sad the way they said goodbye
D G D
Or maybe it just hurt so bad, she couldn’t cry
G C
He packed his things, walked out the door and drove away
G D G
And she became the girl from yesterday
[Verse 2]
G C
He took a plane across the sea to some foreign land
D G D
She stayed at home and tried so hard to understand
G C
How someone who had been so close could be so far away
G D G
And she became the girl from yesterday
[Chorus]
D C G
She doesn’t know what’s right, she doesn’t know what’s wrong
G D Em G C D
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting so long
C G
And she doesn’t count the teardrops
G C G
that she’s cried while he’s away
En D C G
Because she knows deep in her heart
Am D
that he’ll be back someday
[Verse 3]
A
The light’s on in the window,
A D
she’s waiting by the phone
E
Talking to a memory,
E A E
that’s never coming home
A
She dreams of his returning,
A D
and the things that he might say
D A E A
But she’ll always be the girl from yesterday
D A E A
Yeah, she’ll always be the girl from yesterday
