Yesterday, I waited for, you at the corner

candy store the way I always do.
Bb                    Cm              Bb
The hours passed, the gang went home, I was

left there all alone, waiting just for you.

I wonder if it could be true that you had found 
F               Bb       Ab         Bb
somebody new to take the place I've known.
Bb          F              Bb          F
Finally, it got so late, I saw I was a fool to wait,
Bb   Eb          Bb   F
so I walked home alone.
