Yesterday When I Was Young chords by Salena Jones

Chords with lyrics

Chord diagramAm7Am7            Chord diagramD7D7
Yesterday when I was young
                       G7M                  C7M
The taste of love was sweet as rain upon my tongue
                   Chord diagramF#m7F#m7                  Chord diagramB7B7
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game
                      Chord diagramE minorEm         Chord diagramBB+             Chord diagramE7E7
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame
                       Chord diagramAm7Am7                             Chord diagramD7D7
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned
                  G7M                        C7M
I always built to last on weak and shifting sand
                     Chord diagramF#m7F#m7                      Chord diagramB7B7
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
               Chord diagramE minorEm           Chord diagramBB+        Chord diagramE7E7
And only now I see how the years ran away
       Chord diagramAm7Am7            Chord diagramD7D7
Yesterday when I was young
              G7M                     C7M
So many happy songs were waiting to be sung
                Chord diagramAm7Am7                        Chord diagramB7B7
So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me
                    Chord diagramE minorEm             Chord diagramBB+        Chord diagramE7E7
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see
                   Chord diagramAm7Am7                           Chord diagramD7D7
I ran so fast that time and youth, at last, ran out
                      G7M                     C7M
I never stopped to think what life was all about
                Chord diagramAm7Am7                 Chord diagramB7B7
And ev'ry conversation I can now recall
                      Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramBB+               Chord diagramE7E7
Concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all
      Chord diagramAm7Am7               Chord diagramD7D7
Yesterday the moon was blue
                  G7M                         C7M
And ev'ry crazy day brought something new to do
                Chord diagramF#m7F#m7                 Chord diagramB7B7
I used my magic age as if it were a wand
                  Chord diagramE minorEm         Chord diagramBB+          Chord diagramE7E7
And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond
                    Chord diagramAm7Am7                       Chord diagramD7D7
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
         G7M     C7M
And ev'ry flame I lit too quickly, quickly died
                        Chord diagramF#m7F#m7                    Chord diagramB7B7
The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away
               Chord diagramE minorEm       Chord diagramBB+               Chord diagramE7E7
And only I am left on stage to end the play
                    Chord diagramAm7Am7                      Chord diagramD7D7
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung
                     G7M                      C7M
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue
                          Chord diagramAm7Am7              Chord diagramB7B7
The time has come for me to pay for yesterday
         Chord diagramE minorEm   Chord diagramA minorAm   Chord diagramE minorEm
When I was young
