"The Day Before Yesterday's Man" by

"The Supernaturals" from the album

"It doesn't matter anymore" on

"Food Records"

Transcribed by Gary Perkin. Not many words with the CD, so this is
what they sound like to me.

This little song shows how much you can do with just three chords

Verse 1:

--------

[C]Jesus, I'm freaking, I've [G]had such a weekend,

I [F]think I must be turning to [C]dust, (Not too sure about "dust"?)

My [C]girlfriend has dumped me, and [G]headed for the country,

with a [F]boy who wears white [C]socks,

I wish the [G]pavements were burning,

and [F]summer was coming a[CC]lon[FF]g,[CC][FF]

Instead I'm [G]virtually freezing,

and [F]working on this boring old [CC]son[FF]g[CC][FF]

Chorus:

-------

'Cos when the [C]shit [G]hits the [F]fan,[G]

you know I've [C]always been an [G]also [F]ran,[G]

[C]Please please [G]unders[F]tand,[G]

Yes I'm the [C]day before [G]yesterday's [F]man, [G]yeah!

[G]Ooh, ooh, [F]ooh, ooh, the [C]day before [F]yesterday,

the [C]day before [F]yesterday

Verse 2:

--------

My [C]palms are sweating, I'm [G]trying hard forgetting

[F]Things that I didn't even [C]say,

There's [C]nothing on the box, and I'm [G]getting desperate thoughts,

That I [F]just can't keep at [C]bay.

I wish the [G]tables were turning,

and [F]something was coming a[CC]lon[FF]g,[CC][FF]

Instead I'm [G]virtually freaking,

and [F]everything is going so [CC]wro[FF]ng,[CC][FF]

Up-tempo Outro:

---------------

[G]Day, be[F]fore, yester[CC]day[FF].[CC][FF]
