I am currently compiling a number of cheesy love songs to play to a Chinese audience and
found this little number at position one in the all time best western songs for the
Chinese. I couldn’t find a written tab for it anywhere though so I worked through it
myself and the below is the final result..

The Carpenters – Yesterday Once More

E			Emaj7
When I was young I’d listened to the radio
C#m			C#m7
Waitin’ for my favorite songs
Amaj7			B	C#m7
Waiting they played I’d sing along
A		B	B7
It made me smile


E			Emaj7
Those were such happy times, and not so long ago
C#m			C#m7
How I wondered where they’d gone
Cm
But they’re back again
C#m7
Just like a long lost friend
Amaj7		B7
All the songs I loved so well


E			C#m7
(*) every sha-la-la-la, every wo-wo-wo
E
Still shines
E			C#m7
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling, that they’re starting to sing’s
A			B7
So fine


Cm				Gm7
When they get to the part, where he’s breakin’ her heart
A			Am5
It can really make me cry
E			A
Just like before
E
It’s yesterday once more


E			Emaj7
Lookin’ back on how it was, in years gone by
C#m			C#m7
And the good times that I had
Amaj7			B	C#m7
Makes today seem rather sad
A		B	B7
So much has changed


E			Emaj7
It was songs of love that I would sing to then
C#m			C#m7
And I’d memorize each word
C#m
Those old melodies
C#m7
Still sound so good to me
Amaj7		B7
As they melt the years away



Repeat (*)



All my best memories

Come back clearly to me

Some can even make me cry

Just like before

It’s yesterday once more
