In Yesterdays
My Friend Lisa
Key: D
134 BPM
Capo: 3
Verse 1:
She looks at the clock, says, "I can't stay
"I've got to get home, be on my way"
He says, "I wish, you wouldn't go
It's cold outside, starting to snow."
Out the window, it's coming down
She sighs, reaches for the door
He sighs, alone again
Kills the lights, the snow descends
Chorus:
Drifting
Aw-A-y
(Where'd you go?)
Living
In yesterdays
(Where'd she go)
Verse 2:
The engine hums in the muted night
Stares at the dark, makes up her mind
Picks up the phone, tears in her eyes
As it rings, she forces a smile
".Hey how are you? Sorry so late.
Is your wife at home, cause I can't wait."
From the darkened room, he watches her dial
And wonders why he can't make her smile.
Chorus:
Drifting
Aw-A-y
(Where'd you go?)
Living
In yesterdays
(Where'd she go)
Bridge:
In the night snow falls like stars
Hiding lies and hiding scars
The subtle things that we don't say
Built into walls day after day
In the heart of winter, comes a thaw
