OLD PAL OF YESTERDAY
(Public Domain)
Capo 5
        C                            G
In the twilight when the shadows are falling
                               C   G
at the close of a long, weary day
        C       C7           F        Dm
Then I fancy I hear a voice calling
         C          G     C     G
It's my old pal of yesterday

CHORUS:
 C               G              C
Old pal, I'm so blue since you left me
 G                       C   G
Life's been a burden to bear
  C           G            C     Am
I wonder, old pal, if you miss me
   D7                  G7
I wonder if you still care
           C      C7       F     Dm
Does your memory stray to yesterday
    Am                           D7       G7
and take it to a heart that was light and gay
           C            C7       F     Dm
Won't you come back for I still love you
    C          G    C
My old pal of yesterday

        C                            G
When the whippoorwill calls in the wild wood
                               C   G
to his mate who is drifting away
        C       C7           F        Dm
Then my heart rambles back to my childhood
         C          G     C     G
of my old pal of yesterday

CHORUS:
        C                            G
Now, laughter and gladness don't know me
                               C   G
and smiles are like strangers today
        C       C7           F        Dm
What friend could this happiness show me
         C          G     C     G
Oh, it's my old pal of yesterday

CHORUS:
