G         Bm      Em
I see the face of yesterday's child
 F                   Am     D
Living in a state of in between
G           Bm        Em
Is there a place for yesterday's child
 A                    A7       D
Searching for an unforgotten dream?

Chorus:
Em Am    G   Em  Am  G
Looking for rainbows at midnight
 C Bm  Am C  Bm Am    D
Hoping tomorrow will come

Will time erase for yesterday's child?
  C             D     G
What will the child become?

I hear the voice of yesterday's child
Echoing my name, my name, my name
Is there a choice for yesterday's child
Seeking shelter from the falling rain?

Chorus:
Chasing a butterfly lover
Making a run for the sun
Who will rejoice for yesterday's child?
What is the game to be won?

           G
Will you draw?
          Em
Will you fold?
           G            Em
Will you start playing wild?

What is the future for yesterday's child?
          G       Bm
Will you turn to dust
    C              F           G    A
Or go to the sea, racing with destiny?
C
Oh, look at me
C           D            E
Born to be yesterday's child
