Yesterday, I slipped away

                         A7      F#m
The sun is welcoming the evening shadows

On a perfect day
[Chorus]

[Interlude] | D D7 | G A | [Verse]
          D                    D7
We walked barefoot through the misty meadows

G                A           | D D7 | G A |
Laughing at each other in the rain

          D             D7            G
Made some faces at some people in the park

       A         | D D7 | G A |
Didn't bother to explain
[Verse] (+ link to chorus)
D         D7
Fun, fun, look at us run

G             A             | D D7 | G A |
Going nowhere special really fast

          D                D7           G
But we've yet to taste the icing on the cake

                A              | D G | D |
That we've been baking with the past
Pre-[Chorus]
                     G
And the next step is love

               Dmaj7
So what are we waiting for?

                 G
The next step is love

              | Dmaj7 | D7 |
Girl, it's for sure
[Bridge]
      G               A
Yesterday, I slipped away

                         A7      F#m
The sun is welcoming the evening shadows

On a perfect day

Love will be a place to run to

A                      B              | E E7 | A B |
From the world they've built to you and me

         E                 E7
We'll be closer than we've ever been

       A                 B           | E E7 | A B |
Though looking back it's so hard to believe
[Verse] (+ link to coda)
E                  E7
Hang it all out or bring it all in

    A                  B            | E E7 | A B |
The best we've picked upon the way to now

E           E7           A
Changes are coming but together

       B                 | E A | E |
We can make it through somehow
Pre-[Chorus]
                       A
Cause the next step is love

               Emaj7
So what are we waiting for?

                 A
The next step is love

              | Emaj7 | E7 |
Girl, it's for sure
