Biography:
The Carpenters were an American vocal and instrumental duo consisting of siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter. With their light, airy melodies and meticulously crafted, clean arrangements, the duo stood in direct contrast with the excessive, gaudy pop/rock of the '70s; yet they became one of the most popular artists of the decade, scoring 12 Top Ten hits, including three number one singles.
Karen Carpenter's calm, often somber voice was the most distinctive element of their music

[Verse 1]
C
When I was young
Em
I'd listened to the radio
Am F
Waitin' for my favorite songs
C Em
When they played I'd sing along
Dm G
It made me smile
C
Those were such happy times
Em
And not so long ago
Am F
How I wondered where they'd gone
E G Am
But they're back again
C
Just like a long lost friend
F G
All the songs I loved so well
[Chorus]
G7 C
(*) Every Sha-la-la-la
Am
Every Wo-wo-wo
C Am
Still shines
C
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
Am
That they're starting to sing
Dm G
So fine
[Post Chorus]
Am
When they get to the part
C
Where he's breakin' her heart
Am F
It can really make me cry
Em G
Just like before
C
It's yesterday once more
[Verse 2]
C
Lookin' back on how it was
Em
In years gone by
Am F
And the good times that I had
C Em
Makes today seem rather sad
Dm G
So much has changed
C
It was songs of love that
Em
I would sing to then
Am F
And I'd memorize each word
E G C
Those old melodies
Am
Still sound so good to me
F G
As they melt the years away
Repeat (*) (only chorus)
Am
All my best memories
C
Come back clearly to me
Am F
Some can even make me cry
Em G
Just like before
C
It's yesterday once more
Repeat (*) x2
