Sister, it feels just like yesterday

Sister, don't forget my number on the door
Em                            D
You've got something and it's so good to see
F#m                      C#
Something wonderful that I could not be
C                 D
Everybody hanging on for their lives
A                                Bm
But you can't help them 'cos you don't have the time

Bm     A             Em                   Bm
I know everyone goes any damn place they like
Bm     A             Em                     G G G G A A A A
I hope this goes over well on the toxic radio

D       G             A          D
You get taken all the time for a fool
G            A    D
I don't know why
         G            A         D
You're so gullible but I don't mind
G                A       D
That's not the problem
             G             A           D
(And) I don't need anyone with me right now
         G                A    D
Monday, Tuesday is my weekend
       G             A          D
You get taken for a fool all the time
G            A
I don't know why...
