Though I smiled yesterday, 
    F#m                         D 
You know I’m not gonna smile anymore today  
 A                            C#m 
(Since you went away from me) How I miss you 
 A                            C#m 
(Since you went away from me) I long to kiss you 
D 								 A 
Until you are back with me, I’m never gonna smile anymore, oh no 

Though I laughed yesterday, 
You know I’m not gonna laugh anymore today 
(Every moment we’re apart) I get so lonely 
(Every moment we’re apart) I love you only 
Until you are back with me, I’m never gonna smile anymore, oh no 

Bridge: 
D 				       C#m 
And baby, every day without you is a day that’s gonna turn out wrong 
D 
I need, need your love so badly 
   C#m 
So won’t you, won’t you, won’t you, won’t you let me smile again 

Like I smiled yesterday, 
I don’t wanna cry anymore like I cried today 
(Baby hurry back to me) I need your lovin’ 
(Baby hurry back to me) Your tender lovin’ 
Until you are back with me, I’m never gonna smile anymore, oh no 
  
Bridge + verse 3
