3/4
 7    -6    -5*  7    -6    -5*
You should have been there when 
5/4
5  5   5  -5*...
I was twen-ty
-3*  4 -3*
You nev-er 
4/4
  7    -6  -5*  5...
Heard such ap-plause
-3*  4  -3*  8  -7*  7   
But now I’m twen-ty five, 
-3*  4  -3* 8 -7* 7
And hard-ly an-y-one
 -5*   5 -3* 5-5*
Knows I’m a-live
-5*   -5    -5 -5* -6 
But there’s no use in 
 -6  -6  -6*  -6 -6*...
Look-in’ back be-cause:

 7    -6   7-3*  5  -5*
They don't give med-als 
-6  7  -6   -5*  -6  7*
To yes-ter-day's he-roes
  -6    7  -6   -5* -6  7*
'Cause yes-ter-day's o-ver 
-6  -7*  -7* 7   8    8 -9* -7*
And I've got to live for to-day
 8* 8* -7* -9*  9* -7* -9*  9*
I'm go-in' plac-es and no-thing 
-7*  -9*  9* -7* 7*
Can stand in my way
-9*  9  -9* 9 -10-9*
Yes-ter-day is o-ver
