🎸 Verse 1:

      A                B
Yesterday you were the daddy
A       E         A      B  A  E
  Yeah, you were steaming
    D                            D
You had it all, then you realized
G             A       B  A  E
You were only dreaming
           Bm
Now you're washing up last night's coffee cups
D                  A       B  A  E
  Ye---ah, you get cleaning
        F#m                  G
'Ca-use yesterda---y's not today
             A      B  A  E
So it has no meaning

🎸 Verse 2:

      A                B
Yesterday you were the dog's
A     E        A      B  A  E
  But then you blew it
    D                                           D
You set your sights on the best of all, and you got it
G              A      B  A  E
 But you never knew it
        Bm                             D
Now you don't feel wronged or noble at a-all
          A     B  A  E
Just very stupid
       F#m                  G
Ye-ah, yesterda---y's not today
             A   B  A  E
Yesterday is over
         F#m                G
Oh yeah, yesterda---y is so far away
       A      B  A  E
Cannot hurt ya
