Eagles - The girl from yesterday
INTRO: C - G/B - Am7 - G - D7 - G - D7
(verse 1)
G G7 C
It wasn't really sad the way they said good-bye,
D G D - C/E
Or maybe it just hurt so bad she couldn't cry,
D/Gb G G7 C Am7
He packed his things, walked out the door and drove away,
G D7 G - D7
And she became the girl from yesterday,
(verse 2)
G G7 C
He took a plane across the sea to some foreign land,
D G D - C/E
She stayed at home and tried so hard to understand,
D/Gb G G7 C Am7 - G/B
How someone who had been so close could be so far away
Am7 G D7 G - D/Gb - Em7
And she became the girl from yesterday,
(verse 3)
D
She doesn't know what's right,
C G
She doesn't know what's wrong,
C D/Gb Em7 G/D C D7
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long,
C G
And she doesn't count the teardrops,
C G
That she's cried while he's away,
Em D C G/B
Because she knows deep in her heart,
Am7 D7sus -D7 - Em7 - D/F#
That he'll be back someday,
(lead - G - G7 - C - G/B - Am7 - G - D7 - G - E - D/F# - E)
(verse 4)
A A7 D
The light's on in the window, she's waiting by the phone
E7 A E7 - F#m7 - E/Ab
Talking to a memory that's never coming home
A A7 D A/Db
She dreams of his returning and the things that he might say
Bm7 A E7 A - Bm7 - A/Db - D - A/Db
But she'll always be the girl from yesterday
Bm7 A E7 D - A/Db - Bm7 - A
Yeh she'll always be the girl from yesterday
