It Ain't Your Imagination

Verse 1
There's a man still talking
'Bout the good old days
Like time froze up
And never changed
He's got yesterday playing
On a worn-out tape
While tomorrow's knocking
But it's getting late
Chorus
It ain't your imagination…
The future's already here
But everybody's still waiting
For the past to reappear
Nobody wants tomorrow
'Til yesterday disappears
Verse 2
Still talking yesterday
Like it's coming back
While tomorrow's rolling
Right down the track
You can hold on tight
To what you used to know
But the river keeps running
And it won't slow
Final Chorus (slightly lifted but still acoustic)
It ain't your imagination…
The future's already here
But everybody's still waiting
For the past to reappear
Nobody wants tomorrow
'Til yesterday disappears
And brother… these ain't the golden years

Interesting! Got a haunting feeling to it.
The chorus feels like it should swell to me. The vocal already builds there, but the instrumentation stays sparse. I think it should come in stronger, which would allow it to drop out at the end of the chorus too.
I guess we all hanker for the good old days, mostly forgetting the parts that weren't!

I was thinking leave it acoustic and not do the typical rise on chorus and break the rule of only 2 chorues
Maybe I could pull it off vocally . 3rd and 5th on harmony on chorus

Do you really want to go back to the good ole days?
No indoor plumbing, no AC.
Nice song I think you could pull it off.

The structure vcvc has been done , but very rare . Nicky V in Nashville can do a double part on acoustic , So the 2nd part can lift it a tad
Ok I'll go for it Tex
thanks
