Yesterday Is Here

Yesterday Is Here
Written by: Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan (ASCAP) Published by Jalma Music.
Arranged and performed by Jeremy dePrisco (ASCAP) on his CD Bloomsburg to Bangladesh.

If you want money in your pocket, you want a top hat on your head
a hot meal on your table and a blanket on your bed
Well, today is grey skies tomorrow is tears
You’ll have to wait ’til yesterday is here

I’m a going to New York City
I’ll be leaving on a train
and if you wanna stay behind ’til I come back again
Well, today is grey skies tomorrow is tears

CHORUS
Now, if you want to go where the rainbows end
you will have to say goodbye
All our dreams come true baby up ahead
and it’s out where your memories lie

And the road is out before me and the moon is shining bright
What I want you to remember as I disappear tonight
That today is grey skies tomorrow is tears
You’ll have to wait ’til yesterday is here

Solo

And today is grey skies tomorrow’s tears
You’ll have to wait ’til yesterday is here
You will have to wait ’til yesterday is here
You will have to wait ’til yesterday is here
You will have to wait ’til yesterday is here
