 it wasn`t really sad the way they said good - bye
   D     G  D
 or maybe it just hurt so bad she couldn`t cry
 C/E  D/F#  G        G7        C
     he    packed his things ,  walked out the door and drove away
 G/B  Am7   G    D7       G  D7
       and she became the girl from yesterday

 he took A plane across the sea to some foreign land
 she stayed at home and tried so hard to understand
 how someone who had been so close could be so far away
 G/B  Am7   G    D7       G
       and she became the girl from yesterday
 D/F#  Em7   D
        she doesn`t know what`s right
    C   G
 she doesn`t know what`s wrong
    C    D/F#        Em7       G/D C     D7
 she only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long
  C       G
 and she doesn`t count the teardrops
     C   G
 that she`s cried while he`s away
  Em  D      C GB
 because she knows deep in her heart
     Am7  D7 D7 Em7  DF#
 that he`ll be back someday
