Em          A             D
I want to change, to rearrange
         G
What is going on
Em          A                 D
I need to change, I need to play
        C         B7
Like a five year old

I can't detach from the past
And all of the pain
I need to laugh, start from scratch
Begin again

Chorus:
        G         B7
Throw away yesterday
   C        G/B       A
Today is a brand new day
        G         B7
Throw away yesterday
   C         Dm       A
Today is a brand new day

So I'm going to eat one hundred sweets
I don't care if I get fat
And I'm going to speak, I won't censor me
I know I can take nothing back

And I'm going to jump I will unburden
I cannot go too deep
I will not run from bad things I've done
They're things I'll try not to repeat

Chorus:
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

Dm       G
Welcome to
      C               Dm        A
The church of what's happening now
Dm                G
Head straight through
          Am           D
It costs nothing but change

Chorus:
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
[Outro]
Today, yes today
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
'cause today is a brand new day
