I'm not sure how I missed "Yesterday Once More", one of my favourite Carpenters songs and such a lovely song to play.
Not too tricky either, so another good one for beginners. Enjoy playing the letter notes :)
DÂ Â Â Â DÂ Â EÂ Â Â Â F#
When I was young
AÂ Â A-F#Â AÂ Â F#Â B-A-F#
I'd listen to the radio
F#-AÂ Â Â Â BÂ Â ^C#Â Â Â F#-AÂ Â Â B
Waitin' for my favourite songs
F#Â Â Â Â Â Â AÂ Â Â Â Â BÂ Â ^F#Â ^EÂ ^D-^C#
When they played I'd sing along
AÂ Â Â F#Â Â AÂ Â Â F#-E
It made me smile...
DÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â DÂ Â Â Â EÂ Â Â Â F#-AÂ Â Â A
Those were such happy times
F#Â Â Â AÂ Â F#Â Â BÂ Â A-F#
And not so long ago
FÂ Â Â AÂ Â Â Â B-^C#Â Â Â Â Â F#Â Â Â Â Â AÂ Â Â Â Â B
How I wondered where they'd gone
^C#Â Â Â ^EÂ Â ^DÂ Â ^C#-B
But they're back again
^C#Â ^D ^C#Â ^D ^C#Â Â B
Just like a long lost friend
BÂ Â ^C#Â ^DÂ ^DÂ Â BÂ ^DÂ ^E
All the songs I love so well
^D-^EÂ ^F#-^F#-^F#-^F#
Every sha-la-la-la
^E-^D ^C#-^D ^C#-B
Every woah woah
F#Â Â F#-A
Still shines...
^D-^EÂ ^F#-^F#-^F#-^F#-^F#
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
^EÂ Â ^DÂ ^C#-^D ^C#Â B
That they started to sing
F# F#-A
So fine...
BÂ Â Â Â ^C#Â ^D ^C# ^D ^E
When they get to the part
^DÂ Â Â Â Â ^C#Â Â ^D-^C#Â Â ^DÂ ^E
Where he's breaking her heart
^D ^E ^F#-^F# ^E ^D A-B
It can really make my cry
F#Â Â F#Â Â B-F#-A
Just like before
F#Â Â Â F#-E-DÂ Â Â EÂ Â Â F#-G-E
It's yesterday once more...
