Yesterday Is Here chords by Tom Waits

Guitar chords with lyrics

E7     Am      E      Am       E7
If you want money in your pocket and a top hat on your head,
 Am        C      E7       E
a hot meal on your table and a blanket on your bed.


   Am      C   Dm7     Am
Well today’s grey skies, tomorrow is tears.
    F         E      Am  E7
You’ll have to wait till yesterday is here.


     Am        E      Am      E7
Well I’m going to New York City and I’m leaving on a train
  Am       C           E7      E
and if you want to stay behind, wait till I come back again.
