Yesterday When I Was Young - Dusty Springfield

Am    Dm             G
Yesterday when I was young,
                      C                     F
the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
                    Dm                   E
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
                    Am
the way the evening breeze may tease the candle flame.

                      Dm                             G
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned,
                  C                         F
I always built to last on weak and shifting sand.
                     Dm                         E
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of day
               Am
and only now I see how the time ran away.

      Dm             G
Yesterday when I was young,
               C                        F
so many lovely songs were waiting to be sung.
             Dm                         E
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
                    Am
and so much pain my eyes refused to see.

                   Dm                         G
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out.
                   C                        F
I never stopped to think what life was all about.
                Dm                      E
And every conversation that I can now recall
                      Am
concerned itself with me and nothing else at all.

                   Dm                        G
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
                  C                        F
and every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died.
                       Dm                      E
The friends I made all somehow seemed to slip away
                 Am
and only now I'm left alone to end the play.

          Dm             G
Oh, yesterday when I was young,
              C                        F
so many, many songs were waiting to be sung.
             Dm                         E
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
                    Am
and so much pain my eyes refused to see.

                  Dm                        G
There are so many songs in me that won't be sung.
                  C                      F
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue.
                      Dm                  E              Am
The time has come for me to pay for yesterday when I was young.


Enjoy!
