Yesterday's Gone

(G) Yesterday's gone like the (C) ocean (G)
(C) Taken by the (D) tide
(G) Like the night and the (C) morning (G)
(C) Like a (Am) bird when she (D) flies

    (Am) Yesterday's gone and it's (Em) only now
    A (Am) place where today used to (Em) be
    (C) Lost in the space of (G) forever and (Esus4) eternity (E)

But tomorrow the sun will be born in
The twinkling of an eye
Father and mother of morning

Hope of today's gone by

    The beginning of all that has happened
    Yet the ending of all that's to be
    Just a rhyme in the line of the song only time can sing

Ah but (Em) I've read the (Em/d) book long (C) before 

I had (C/db) learned how to (D) read (D/eb) between the (Em) lines (Em/d)
I (C) saw only what I could (G) see 

Through my eyes not my (Esus4) mind (E)

God it takes a long (C) time
