Yesterday - The Beatles
from the album „Help”
tabbed by Howard Wright

You need to tune all strings down one tone for this - so when
you play a G shape it actually comes out in the key of F.
It's important to do this - you can't just play the thing in F
using normal tuning - you need some bass notes which you can
only get by tuning down a tone and playing as if in G.
(I'll write all the chord names as if in standard tuning)

tłumaczenie;
Wczoraj
Wczoraj, wszystkie zmartwienia wydawały się być tak daleko,
Teraz wygląda tak, jakby rozgościły się tu na dobre.
Oh, wierzę we wczorajszy dzień.
Nagle, nie jestem w połowie człowiekiem, którym zwykłem być.
Jest tu cień wiszący nade mną.
Oh, wczorajszy dzień przyszedł nagle.
Dlaczego musiała odejść, nie wiem, nie powiedziała.
Ja powiedziałem coś złego, teraz tęsknię za wczorajszym dniem.
Wczoraj, miłość była taką prostą grą.
Teraz potrzebuję miejsca by się skryć.
Oh, wierzę we wczorajszy dzień.
