[Verse 1]
G D
Something happened to me yesterday
C G
Something I can’t speak of right away
C Am D D7
Something happened to me, something oh so groovy
G D C D G
Something happened to me yesterday

[Chorus 1]
C
He don’t know if it’s right or wrong
G
Maybe he should tell someone
C
He’s not sure just what it was
G
Or if it’s against the law
D
Sooomethiiing

G Am G Am G

[Verse 2]
G D
Something very strange I hear you say
C G
You’re talking in a most peculiar way
C Am D D7
But something really threw me, something oh so groovy
G D C D G
Something happened to me yesterday

[Chorus 2]
C
He don’t know just where it’s gone
G
He don’t really care at all
C
No one’s sure just what it was
G
Or the meaning and the cause
D
Sooomethiiing

G Am G Am G

[Break]
G D C G
C Am D D7
G D C D G

[Chorus 1]
C
He don’t know if it’s right or wrong
G
Maybe he should tell someone
C
He’s not sure just what it was
G
Or if it’s against the law
D
Sooomethiiing

G Am G Am G

[Verse 3]
G D
Someone says there’s something more to pay
C G
For sins that you committed yesterday
C Am D D7
It’s really rather drippy, but something oh so trippy
G D C D G
Something happened to me yesterday

[Chorus 2]
C
He don’t know just where it’s gone
G
He don’t really care at all
C
No one’s sure just what it was
G
Or the meaning and the cause
D
Sooomethiiing

G Am G Am G

[Verse 4]
G D
Someone’s singing loud across the bay
C G
Sittin’ on a mat about to pray
C Am D D7
Isn’t half as looney as something oh so groovy
G D C D G
Something happened to me yesterday

[Chorus 1]
C
He don’t know if it’s right or wrong
G
Maybe he should tell someone
C
He’s not sure just what it was
G
Or if it’s against the law
D
Sooomethiiing

G Am G Am G

[Outro]
