Intro:
G Am D D/F# G Bm
C Bm Am Dsus D

Verse:
G          Bm           C          D/C
Since you left me I never really tried
        Bm       Em                 Am  Bm C D7
To put my life back where it should belong
G           Bm   C                 D/C
And I've always let the past come back
     Bm       Em                 D Dsus G7/D
Not realizing that it could be wrong
C            G/B          Am     B/D#     Em
But now I finally knew I had to let it go
    A                A7    D        B7
To make way for a brighter tomorrow

Chorus:
    Em               Am         D
So now  I'm leavin' yesterday behind
            G         Bm    C
And finally I've made up my mind
           Am          B Em
To let the mem'ries stay away
          E7
And think about today
Am              D Am/C Bm
I'm leavin' yesterday behind
                E7              Am 
'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more
    D7            C Bm Am D
The way I did before

Verse:
G         Bm         C             D/C
Since I know that I never will forget
     Bm             Em          Am Bm C D7
The memories that made my yesterday
G           Bm       C        D/C
I will not try to let it interfere
       Bm           Em             D Dsus G7/D
The choices I will make along the way
C                  G/B       Am    B/D#     Em
'Cause I'm not livin' in a world of fantasy
     A               A7     D        B7
I'm here now in the world of reality

(Repeat Chorus except last word)
            G Am Am B7
      ... before

(Repeat Chorus except last line)
G/B       C       D7    G Bm C D7 G
Just the way I did before.
