The words are correct and the chords, well, as far as I can tell, are good, well, maybe ok?
But hey, knock yourself out! It's a good, easy song any schlub can sing and belt out on
string!

The chords of the song are:
It seems like only yesterday
I didn't have a clue
I stood alone not knowing where to turn
Now suddenly I look around
And everything looks new
I don't know why, but I think I'm starting to learn
They call it understanding
A willingness to grow
I'm finally understanding
There's so much I can know
Until the day you came along
I used to just get lost
I only heard the things I wanted to hear
It always seemed like no one cared
But then you took the time
And now I look and everything seems so clear
You've got me understanding
You've really helped me see
I'm finally understanding
It's meant so much to me
You've got me understanding
You've given me some pride
I'm finally understanding
You're really on my side, you're really on my side
Yeah, yeah
You've got me understanding
Understanding
Ya got met understanding
Understanding
Ya got me understanding
For the first time
ya got me understanding
