NOTE: * This song is played in B-Aeolian at 112BPM, except for the switch where it changes to B-Dorian.
      * Every verse melody is an odd 5 and 1/2 bars in lenght. While the instrumental after the second chorus
        uses the same melody and chords, its first cycle is shortened to a mere 4 bars. When repeated, it goes
        back to 5 and 1/2 bars.
      * None of the tabs below are official.

[Verse]
Bm                       Em      A
Twentyfive years since I woke up trembeling,
Em         A                Em       Bm
Twentyfive years since that terribly dream.
Bm                   Em        A
I could see that the world was crumbling,
F#m         A    Esus4 Em
nothing is ever as it seems.

I tried to run but my feet were frozen,
Em       A             Em     Bm
tried to scream, there was no sound.
Bm          Em     A
In my head, voices echoing
F#m        A           Esus4     Em
"Girl you should know better by now."

Long ago-o,

In the midst of
Bm    Em
Yesterday.

Bm               Em      A
You had tried so hard to save me.
Em         A            Em       Bm
How do you save someone from themself?
Bm               Em     A
All those years, wasted wishes
F#m      A      Esus4   Em
drowning in the wishing well...
 
[Chorus]
Bm   Em  A
Long ago-o,
Bm   A  Asus2
Far away.
Bm     Em    A
In the midst of
Bm    Em
Yesterday.
