YESTERDAY
	by John Lennon/Paul McCartney


   F         F                 Em           A7  
             Yesterday...            all my troubles  seemed so

Dm              Dm/C    Bb          C                        Bb/F F   
Far   away...               Now  it looks  as though they're here to stay

C/E     Dm7       G7   Bb  F         
    oh  I  believe  in yesterday...

            F                   Em           A7             Dm          
            Suddenly....             I'm not half the man I used to be
 
Dm/C   Bb              C            Bb/f F    C/E    Dm7      G7       
            There's a shadow hanging o--ver me     oh yesterday  came 
        
Bb F   
suddenly

(Chorus)

G/A   A7   Dm   C  Bbmaj7  Dm/A        Gm          C7           F
Why   she  had  to  go     I     don't know   she wouldn't say...

G/A   A7    Dm  C    Bbmaj7  Dm/A     Gm      C     F  
I    said  something wrong   now   I long for yesterday

(end of Chorus)


F                Em              A7           Dm
Yesterday....           Love was such an easy game to play....

Bb             C               Bb/F F           Dm7        G7    Bb  F  
         Now I need a place to hide away..  oh  I   believe.. in yesterday


(repeat Chorus)



F                Em              A7           Dm
Yesterday....           Love was such an easy game to play.....          

Bb             C               Bb/F F           Dm7        G7     Bb  F 
         Now I need a place to hide away...  oh I   believe..  in yesterday

F/C         G/B       Bb   F
Mm     mm    mm   mm  mm.......



        tablature by Jonathan Byrd

I have listed the basic chord progression above the tablature.
Sometimes the melody is part of the chord, and sometimes an extension
of the chord.  I did not indicate which notes should be sustained.  To
show the timing, I placed a "v" over each beat.  I typically play the
intro, two verses, the bridge, another verse, and the coda.
