Verse 1
GC
Looking in the rearview at the road behind me now
EmD
All those miles of memories are fading in the clouds
GC
I’ve been holding on so tight to things I can’t control
EmD
But it’s time to let it go and let the future roll
Chorus
CG
Goodbye yesterday
EmD
I’m not looking back that way
CG
Goodbye yesterday
DG
Hello to a brand new day
Verse 2
GC
Every scar and every tear has brought me to this place
EmD
Standing on the edge of something I can’t wait to face
GC
The sun is coming up and painting colors on the wall
EmD
Guess sometimes you gotta lose it all to find it all
Chorus
CG
Goodbye yesterday
EmD
I’m not looking back that way
CG
Goodbye yesterday
DG
Hello to a brand new day
Bridge
Am
I’ve been carrying this weight
Em
For way too long

Everything that’s wrong

Goodbye yesterday
