Intro: CG-DG-D
It G wasn’t really G7 sad the way they C said good-bye
Or D maybe it just hurt so bad she G couldn’t cry D7
He G packed his things, G7 walked out the door and C drove away
And G she became the D7 girl from yester-G day CD7
He G took a plane G7 across the sea to some C foreign land
She D stayed at home and tried so hard to G understand D7
How G someone who had been so close could C be so far away
And G she became the D7 girl from yester-G day
She D doesn’t know what’s right, she C doesn’t know what’s G wrong
She C only D knows the Em7 pain that D comes from C waiting for so D7 long
And she C doesn’t count the G teardrops, that she’s C cried while he’s a-G way
Be-Em cause she D knows deep C in her G heart
That Am7 he’ll be back some-D7day
Key up 1 tone to A ———-
The A light’s on in the A7 window, she’s D waiting by the phone
E7 Talking to a memory that’s A never coming E7 home
She A dreams of his A7 returning and the D things that he might say
But she’ll A always be the E7 girl from yester-A day
Yeah she’ll A always be the E7 girl from yester A day
