Or maybe it just hurt so bad she couldn't cry

He packed his things, walked out the door and drove away
[Chorus]
G/B Am7 G D7 G D7
And she became the girl from yesterday
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
He took a plane across the sea to some foreign land
She stayed at home and tried so hard to understand
How someone who had been so close could be so far away
[Chorus]
G/B Am7 G D7 G
And she became the girl from yesterday

She doesn't know what's right
C G
She doesn't know what's wrong
C D/F# Em7 G/D C D7
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long
C G
And she doesn't count the teardrops
C G
That she's cried while he's away
Em D C G/B
Because she knows deep in her heart
