Return To Yesterday

C

C          F     C        G          C
It was the day before the day before yesterday
     F                     G         C
When we thought everything would now go our way
     F         G          C
We inherited a fortune of innocence
      Em                  F
And they took it all away

                 G             C
We travel on the last bus from sanity
        F        C       G            C
Through province town to cities of obscurity
    F                 G         C
And some way down the road it occurs to me
      Em                 G      Em
That I might have missed my stop

F             C  F       G        F
But I will not return to yesterday
C  F              G      F
Or smooth out the human clay
C     F             G                      Am
We'll face this new England like we always have
                  G
In a fury of denial
                                F
We'll go out dancing on the tiles
                                C Am G C
Help me down, but don't take me baaaaack

  F             G                C
I heard a lover calling to Saint Anthony
F     C        G             C
Sadly treating love like her property
     F              G              C
Only battles can be lost and so it seems we do
       Em                  F
But I'm hoping for a change

                  G           C
I left you at the bus stop in working town
        F       C        G             C
Now the service has been cut, re-named slumberdown
      F              G                        C
I can see you on the bars of your brother's bicycle
     Em
Now I hope you're not alone

F             C  F       G        F
But I will not return to yesterday
C  F              G      F
Or smooth out the human clay
C     F             G                      Am
We'll face this new England like we always have
                 G
In a fury of denial
                              F
We'll go out dancing on the tiles
                                C Am G C
Help me down, but don't take me baaaaack

            Am         F
And all the politician creeps
                      C
I know they want them back
        Am            F
And the couturier weeps
                          C
She knows they won't come back
        Am
And the lovers who seldom speak
F                     C
I know they want them back
               Am                       G
And me falling back into your half term kisses

F             C  F       G        F
No, I will not return to yesterday
C  F              G      F
Or smooth out the human clay
C     F             G                      Am
We'll face this new England like we always have
                 G
In a fury of denial
                               F
We'll go out dancing on the tiles
                                C
Help me down, but don't take me back
  F       G        F
Return to yesterday
C  F              G      F
Or smooth out the human clay
C     F             G                      Am
We'll face this new England like we always have
                 G
In a fury of denial
                               F
We'll go out dancing on the tiles
                                C
Help me down, but don't take me back
  F       G        F
Return to yesterday
C  F              G      F  C
Or smooth out the human clay
