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
