[Riff 1]
Yesterday, there was so many things
I was never told
Now that I startin' to learn
I feel I'm growin' old
D C9
'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me
G5
Old pictures that I'll always see
D
Time just fades the pages
G5
In my book of memories
[Riff 1]
Prayers in my pocket
And no hand in destiny
I'll keep on movin' along
With no time to plant my feet
D C9
'Cause yesterday's got nothing for me
G5
Old pictures that I'll always see
D
Some things could be better
G5
If we'd all just let them be
[Riff 2]
Uh...Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Got nothin' for me

Yesterday there were so many things
I was never shown
Suddenly this time I found
I'm on the streets and I'm all alone

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Old pictures that I'll always see
D G5
I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties

Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Yesterday's got nothin' for me
