C       A#       F
If you wake and don't wanna smile
C      A#           F
If it takes just a little while
C          A#    F
Open your eyes, look at the day
G
You'll see things in a different way

Chorus:
C      A#    F
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
C      A#    F
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
C         A#   F
It'll be here better than before
 G
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

Why not think about the times to come
And not about the things that you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do

Chorus

All I want is to see you smile
If it takes just a little while
I know you don't beieve that it's true
I didn't mean any harm to you

Chorus

D       C    G
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
D       C    G
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
D         C    G
It'll be here better than before
A
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

D  C   G                  D C  G
Oooooooh, don't you look back
D  C   G                  D C  G
Oooooooh, don't you look back
D  C   G                  D C  G
Oooooooh, don't you look back
D  C   G                  D C  G
Oooooooh, don't you look back
