[Eb] [E] You [A] told her lies as her starry eyes looked up [G] in [E] admiration.
You painted scenes and lovely dreams with all your [A] temptation.
You spoke of things like wedding rings and promised her [D] the world.
For [E] no cause at all you let her fall and now she's [A] yesterday's girl.
You think it's smart to lure the heart of a girl whose lips [E] you've kissed.
Is it just a game to add her name to your broken-hearted [A] list?
You've loved some long, you've loved some wrong, you promised each the world.
[E] Each came to be just a memory and another yesterday's girl.
[Abm] [Bm] [E] [A]
Don't you sometimes feel that love is real, the greatest [E] thing in life?
Not one romance you gave the chance to be your [A] cherished wife.
You cheat and lie, you make them cry and promise each the world.
[E] And one by one they each become another [A] yesterday's girl.
When autumn falls and you recall the things that [E] might have been,
Then you'll pause and see you caused the grief that's [A] deeper than war.
When you're old and love grows cold, I bet you'd give [D] the world [Eb] [E] to just relive,
to take and give the love of a yesterday's girl.

No one romance you gave the chance to be your [Ab] cherished wife.
You cheat and lie, you made me cry and [F] promised me [Db] the [D] world.
[Eb] I loved you best but liked the rest, I'm another yesterday's girl.
[Ab] [Abm] [Ab] You think it's smart to lure the heart of a girl whose [Eb] lips you kiss.
Was it just a game to add my name to your broken [Ab] hearted list?
You love me long, you love me wrong and promised [Db] me the world.
[Eb] Yet I came to be just a memory and another [Ab] yesterday's girl.
When autumn falls and you recall the things that [Eb] might have been,
