INTRO: A D E..A F#m Bm E..A F#m D

CHORUS:
D   E   A            F#m                    C#m
Un..til you came, it felt like my world was fallin' 
                   C#m C Bm
apart at the seams.
Bm                  D                     E      E7
All of my childhood dreams were empty and meaningless.
D   E   A            F#m                      C#m
Un..til we kissed it seemed like the rain was turnin' my 
                C#m C Bm
hopes into sand.
    Bm                D      E           A
Oh, I was a yesterday man, until I found you.

#1.
A                      F#m                        Bm
It was as plain as the nose on my face that I was heading 
  E
nowhere.
     A                    F#m             Bm
Then into my life came an angel of grace..sunlight in her 
E
hair.
     F#m                                  D
Now, love is the strangest emotion..cause just when I want 
       Dm                      A        F#m
you to stay..seems like you're changing....don't turn me 
 Bm                   E7
away..(don't turn me away.)

CHORUS:
D   E   A            F#m                    C#m
Un..til you came, it felt like my world was fallin' 
                   C#m C Bm
apart at the seams.
Bm                  D                     E      E7
All of my childhood dreams were empty and meaningless.
D   E   A            F#m                      C#m
Un..til we kissed it seemed like the rain was turnin' my 
                C#m C Bm
hopes into sand.
    Bm                D      E           A
Oh, I was a yesterday man, until I found you.


(INTERLUDE:) D E..A F#m Bm E

#2.
A                   F#m                 Bm           E
I'm like a man in a mantle of black who just saw the light..
    A                        F#m                   Bm
who cast off the shadow when you gave him back the meaning 
   E
to life.
     F#m                                  D
Now, love is the strangest emotion..cause just when I want you 
   Dm                      A       F#m                Bm
to stay..seems like you're changing....don't turn me away..
               E7
(I want you to stay.)
