Am Yesterday saw you missing F Drawn to the light in the G distance Holding her hand while she listened She Am F told him how much she would G miss him Said his goodbyes to his children And let Am F the weight fade away Chorus: Am I have your hands F But I have my mother's eyes Your tact and poise And her Am sense of wrong and right Heard you awake in the F middle of the night Letting go of the things you keep inside G Worked your fingers Am F to the bone To be sent G home with a cardboard box Am Filled with everything F you've known All things come to be loved and lost Chorus: Am I'll keep a moment sealed G/B C in time inside a picture frame F A small reminder of the days G I thought would never change Am G/B They always say it's clear to C F see How parts of you shine G Am through in me I think you know G F you won't be here forever And you're counting down the Am days until you can rest your G F tired eyes and let it slip away F G The lessons learned at your side Am Will stay with me all my life The man I hope to become I F know is deep down inside G I know you don't even need Am to say I know you're proud F G Am in your own way I know F G Am you're proud in your own way Chorus: F And you watched me grow up G As I watched you grow older Am The chip off your block held me up on your shoulders F G Am I wish I told you yesterday You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm ![]() B ![]() C ![]() F ![]() G ![]() Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
