Carpenters - Yesterday Once More
Capo 4
C G/B Am7 Am7/G
When I was young I'd listen to the radio Waitin' for my favorite songs
Fmaj7 Em7 Edim Dm7 F/G
When they played I'd sing along It made me smile
C G/B
Those were such happy times And not so long ago
Am7 Am7/G Fmaj7
How I wondered where they'd gone
Bm7b5 E7 Am7 Am7/G
But they're back again Just like a long lost friend
Fmaj7 Dm7 F/G
All the songs I loved so well
G C Am7 C Am7
* Every sha-la-la-la Every wo-o-wo-o Still shines
C Am7 Dm7 Em7 F G
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're startin' to sing's So fine
Am7 G#+
When they get to the part Where he's breakin' her heart
Am7/G D7/F#
It can really make me cry
C/G F/G Cmaj7 F/C Cmaj7 F/C
Just like before It's yesterday once more
C G/B
Lookin' back on How it was in years gone by
Am7 Am7/G
And the good times that I had
Fmaj7 Em7 Edim Dm7 F/G
Makes today seem rather sad So much has changed
C G/B
It was songs of love That I would sing to then
Am7 Am7/G Fmaj7
And I'd memorize each word
Bm7b5 E7 Am7 Am7/G
Those old melodies Still sound so good to me
Fmaj7 Dm7 F/G
As they melt the years away
G C Am7 C Am7
Every Sha-la-la-la Every Wo-o-wo-o Still shines
C Am7 Dm7 G F/G
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're startin' to sing's So fine
G Am7 G#+
All my best memories Come back clearly to me
Am7/G D7/F#
Some can even make me cry
C/G F/G Cmaj7 F/C
Just like before It's yesterday once more *
