YESTERDAY, WHEN I WAS YOUNG (HIER ENCORE)
ROY CLARK
VERSE 1:
Gm7 C7
6 -6 7b -6 -7b -8 7
Yesterday When I Was Young,
Fmaj7
-7b 7 -7b 7 -7b -6 6# -6 6# -6 7
The taste of life was sweet as rain up-on my
Bb
-7b
tongue.
Em7b5 A7
-6 -7b -6 -7b -6 6 6 6 6 6 -7b -5
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
Dm
6 -6 6 -6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle
-6
flame;
Gm7
-5 -5 -5 6 -6 -7b
The thousand dreams I dreamed,
C7
-6 -7b -6 -7b -8 7
The slpendid things I planned
Fmaj7 Bb
-7b 7 -7b 7 -7b -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 7 -7b
I always built, alas, on weak and shifting sand;
Em7b5
-6 -7b -6 -7 -6 6 6 6 6 6 -7b
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of
A7
-6
day
Dm
6 -6 6 -6 6 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 -5
And only now I see how the years ran away
CHORUS:
Gm7 C7
-7b 7 -8 7# -8 -9 8
Yesterday When I Was Young,
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7
-8 8 -8 8 -8 7 -7b 7 -7b 7 8 -8
So many drinking songs were waiting to be sung,
Gm A7/9
7# -8 7 -8 7 -7b -7b -7b -7b -7b -8 7#
So many wayward pleasures lay in store for me
Dm
-7b 7 -7b 7 -7b -6 -6 -6 -6 -7b -6 -6
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see,
Gm7 C7
-6 -6 -6 -7b 7 -8 7# -8 7 -8 -9 8
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out,
Fmaj7 Bbmaj7
-8 8 -8 8 -8 7 -7b 7 -7b 7 8 -8
I never stopped to think what life was all about
Gm A7b9
7# -8 7 -8 7 -7b -7b -7b -7b -7b -8 7#
And every conversation I can now recall
Dm
-7b 7 -7b 7 -7b -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all.
VERSE 2:
Yesterday the moon was blue,
and every crazy day brought something new to do,
I used my magic age as if it were a wand,
and never saw the watse and emptiness beyond;
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
and every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died;
The friends I made all seemed to somehow drift
away
And only I am left on stage to end the play.
OUTRO:
Dm Gm A7
-4 -4 -4 5 -5 6 6 6 6 6 -7b -6
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung,
Dm G
-6 -6 -7b -6 6 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -6 6
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue,
Gm Dm
-5# 6 -5# 6 -5 5 5 5 6 -5 -5 -5
The time has come for me to pay for Yesterday
A7 Gm Dm
-5 5 -4 -4
When I Was Young.
