[Verse 1]
G
Yesterday
C G
I drove past the house we used to live in
C G
When you were waitin' tables
D
I was working nine to five
G
Do you remember
C G
All the snow we got that winter?
C G
Your car could barely make it
D
Up the drive
G C
We had to skimp and save
G
To pay that rent
C G
But it was worth every last cent
D
Just for the view
G
One bedroom house
C G
Big bay windows facing south
C G
Watch the sunrise on the mountain
D
Every morning next to you
[Chorus]
C G Em D
Oh, the memories are sweet, but I wouldn't trade 'em for
C G Em D
The way we fight a little less now, make love a little more
C G Em C
Like that bottle we've been saving of California wine
C D G
We keep getting better with time
[Bridge]
C G C G D
[Verse 2]
G
We couldn't wait
C G
A year was all we needed
C G
To know the love we'd found
D
Was something rare
G
We said our vows
C G
On a weekday on the mountain
C G
With a bottle of champagne
D
And the book of common prayers
G
And that first Christmas
C G
You'd bring home bottles of good vintage
C G
That the table didn't finish
D
And we'd drink a midnight glass
G
And fall asleep
C G
By the soft light of the tree
C G
With the dog down by our feet
D
In each others arms at last
[Chorus]
C G Em D
Oh, the memories are sweet, but I wouldn't trade 'em for
C G Em D
The way we fight a little less now, make love a little more
C G Em C
Like that bottle we've been saving of California wine
C D G
We keep getting better with time
[Verse 3]
C
Now it looks like
G D
Someone finally bought the place
C
They'll tear it down
G D
And build some million dollar mansion to their taste
C
But honey that's okay
[Chorus]
C G Em D
Oh, the memories are sweet, but I wouldn't trade 'em for
C G Em D
The way we fight a little less now, make love a little more
C G Em C
Like that bottle we've been saving of California wine
D Em
We keep getting better with time
Am C G
We keep getting better with time
