Start Jamming...
[Eb] After long enough of being [Ab] alone
[F] Everyone must face their [Eb] share of loneliness
[Cm] In my own [F]
time [Bb] nobody knew
[Db] [Eb] The pain I was going [Ab] through
[Fm] And waiting was all [Eb] my [Bb] heart could do
[Eb] Hope was all I had until you [F] came
Maybe you can't see how much [Bb] you [Eb] mean to me
[D] [Cm] You were [F] the dawn breaking [Bb] on
[Eb] The promise of morning [Ab] light
[F] Filling the world [Bb] around me
When I hold [Db] you baby baby
Feels like baby [Fm] things will be alright
[Db] Baby baby you're always [Eb] baby
Greatest [Bb]
song you've sang [Eb] forever
Only yesterday when I was [Fm] sad and [Bb] empty
[Eb] You showed me the way to leave the [F] past
And all [Bb] that's deep behind me
[G] Tomorrow may be [Ab] even brighter [Gm] than [C] today
Since [F] I've [Bb] put my sadness [Ab] away Only [Eb] yesterday
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Bb] [Eb]
I've [Cm] [F]
[Bb] [Eb]
found my home here in your [Ab]
arms
[Eb] Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be
[D] [Cm] Life waits [F] for us share it [Bb] with me
[Eb] The best is about [Ab] to be
[F] So much is left [Bb] for us to see
When I hold you [Db] baby baby
Feels like [Fm] baby things will be alright
[Db] Baby baby you're always [Fm] baby
[Bb] Greatest song you've sang forever
[Eb] Only yesterday [Ab] when I [Fm] was sad and [Bb] empty
You [Eb] showed me the way to leave the [Fm] past
And all [Bb] that's deep behind [G] me
Tomorrow may be [D] even [E] brighter than [D] today
[C] [F] Since I've [Bb] put my sadness [Ab] away Only [Eb] yesterday
[B] Only [E] yesterday when I [Gbm] was sad
[B] and empty
[E] You showed me the way to leave the [Gbm] past
