Julie's got the word today
  C          Am    G
She lost her job just one last pay
C        F     C Am
Life don't come easy anymore

G     C      F
Still strugglin'on by herself
   C
Got a picture of Jimmy
    Am    G
There on the shelf
C

And she looks at him and says
F         C C G/B
Why did we let it go

Am          Em
I know that sometimes, baby
      F        C C G/B
We didn't see things eye-to-eye
Am         Em
I got just one question
    F          G
Did we have to say goodbye?

     C      F
Just like prisoners in paradise
   C         F
Still far from heaven's door
C     G/B      Am
We had it all but still we
    G  F Dm
Wanted more
G   F       G
Now I realize that I can't turn back
  Am    G     F
The future's here to stay
          C        G
But hey, we're just children of tomorrow
    F G     Am F G
Hangin' on to yesterday

C          F
Jimmy still recalls the night
    C
When he took his guitar
Am        G
And headed on out
C        F
To find the big time
     C    Am
That was his dream

G    C
He gave up his past
  F
And made it alright
      C
But there's something missin'
    Am     G
In his heart tonight
C         F
Sometimes what you want
        C   C G/B
Ain't what you need, no no

  Am
He misses drivin' down
      Em
To the lake at night
   F
Holdin' his baby
    C      C G/B
In his arms so tight
Am          Em
Ain't it hard to find illusions
      F         G
When you're livin' in a memory

     C      F
Just like prisoners in paradise
  C        F
So close but yet so far
   C
There will come a time
G/B Am     G  F Dm
No matter who you are
G    F
When you ask yourself
    G
Was it right or wrong
  Am  G  F
For me to turn away
          C        G
But hey, we're just children of tomorrow
   F  G    C
Hangin' on to yesterday
