CHORDSUPYesterday when I was young - Glen Campbell chords
Key:
Dm
Singer/Band:
Glen Campbell
1. Dm Yester-Gm day when I was C young
The taste of life was F sweet as rain upon my Bb tongue
I teased at life as Gm if it were a foolish A game
The A7 way the evening Dm breeze may tease a candle flame
The D7 thousand dreams I Gm dreamed, the splendid things I C planned
I always built a F las on weak and shifting Bb sands
I lived by night, and Gm shunned the naked light of A the day
And A7 only now I Dm see the years that ran a-D7 way
ĐK: Yester-Gm day when Bb I was C young
So many happy F songs were waiting to be Bb sung
So many wayward plea-Gm sure that lay in store for A me
And A7 so much pain Dm my dazzled eyes refused to D7 see
I ran so fast that Gm time and Bb youth at last ran C out
I never stopped to F think what life was all a-Bb bout
And every conver-Gm sation that I can now re-A call
Con-A7 cerned itself with Dm me, and nothing else at all
2. Yester-Gm day the moon was C blue
And every crazy F day brought something new to Bb do
I used my magic Gm age as if it were a A wand
And A7 never saw the Dm waste and emptiness be-D7 yond
The games of love I Gm played with Bb arrogance and C pride
And every flame I F lit, so quickly quickly Bb died
The friends I made all Gm seemed somehow to drift a-A way
And A7 only I am Dm left on stage to end the D7 play
* There are so many Gm songs in Bb me that won't be C sung
I feel the bitter F taste of tears upon my Bb tongue
The time has come for Gm me to pay for yester-A day
when A7 I was Dm young
