This is my best interpretation of this song per the record.
I hope you enjoy it.  Though I can sing this song as is, I
often transpose it to C which is more inline with my vocals.

Played in A chord.
Capo on 2nd Fret to play with youtube song at link below this song.

#1: 
              A       E          A   A7
When I get to thinking about the past
               D                                 A
and all of the good things that were too good to last
            A   F#m               D   E
I cry in my heart for each little part
               A
of yesterday's love
                    D           A   E
(background vocals) yesterday's love

#2:
             A      E                A   A7
A few tender moments when heaven was mine
                  D                            A
the vows that you whispered with each kiss was divine 
               A  F#m                 D    E
how empty they seem they're lost in a dream
                 A
with yesterday's love
                    D           A   A7
(background vocals) yesterday's love

Chorus:  
            D       E          A  
somewhere I lost you along the way
             E                          A  A7
lost without knowing the price that I'd pay
                 D                            A   
I can't help but wonder how things would have been
                 B7              E    E7
if I could start over and try it again

#3:
                 A       E               A   A7
but love has its problems and bridges to burn
                  D                  A     E
you have to cross over and you never return
                      A F#m             D   E
for dreams have their day and then fade away 
                 A       D           A
with yesterday's love, --yesterday's love
