Eb                           Fm
After long enough of being alone,
 Bb                                Eb
Everyone must face their share of loneliness.
Cm           F7          Bb
  In my own time nobody knew,
     Gm                Ab
The pain I was going through,
     Fm                 Eb         Bb
And waiting was all my heart could do.
 Eb                            F
Hope was all I had until you came,
Ddim                              Bb     Eb
Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me.
Cm               F7                Bb
   You were the dawn breaking the night,
      Gm                 Ab
The promise of morning light.
 F                   Bb
Filing the world surrounding me.

[Pre-chorus]
     Bb7
And when I hold you.
Db
Baby, baby, feels like maybe,
 Fm
Things will be all right.
 Db
Baby, baby, your love's made me,
 Fm             Bb7
Free as a song singing forever.

[Chorus]
 Eb                       Fm             Bb
Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely.
Eb                                  Fm
You showed me the way to leave the past,
             Bb
And all its tears behind me.
G7                      Cm            C
  Tomorrow may be even brighter than today,
     Fm          Bb       Fm
Since I threw my sadness away,
           Eb
Only yesterday.

[Verse 2]
Eb                                 Fm
I have found my home here in your arms,
 Bb                                   Eb
Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be.
Cm                 F7              Bb
  Life waits for us, share it with me.
    Eb               Ab
The best is about to be,
    F                   Bb
And so much is left for us to see.

[Pre-chorus]
     Bb7
And when I hold you.

Baby, baby, your love's made me,

Since I threw my sadness away,

Only yesterday.

Since I threw my sadness away,

Only yesterday. (repeat till fade)
