Only Yesterday - The Carpenters chords

Key: D Singer/Band: The Carpenters


Tone [D] Capo on 1st fret
[D] After long enough of being [Em] alone
Every one must [A7] face their share of [D] loneliness
In my own time nobody [A7] knew the pain I was going [G] through
[Em] Waiting was all my [A7] heart could do
[D] Hope was all I had until you [Em] came
Maybe you can't [A7] see how much you [D] meant to me
You were the dawn breaking the [A7] night the promise of morning [G] light
[Em] Filling the world sur – [A7] rounding me when I hold you
[C] Baby baby feels like maybe things will be al- [Em] right
[C] Baby baby your love's made me free as the song [A7] singing forever
[D] Only yesterday when I was [Em] sad and I was [A7] lonely
[D] You showd me the way to leave the [Em] past and all it's [A7] tears behind
me
Tomorrow [F#] maybe even [Bm] brighter than today
Since [Em] I threw my [A7] sadness a- [Em7] way, [A7] only yester- [D] day
[D] I have found my home here in your [Em] arms
Nowhere else on [A7] earth I’d really rather [D] be
Life waits for us share it with [A7] me, the best is about to [G] be
[Em] And so much is left for [A7] us to see, When I hold you
