What chords are you playing? That's sort of important. Break this down a bit. I'm assuming you have a mixed couplet here.

C
Think about the time
G
that was yesterday
C
We used to waste our time
G
Day after day

we have an A and I rhyme. So lets make it an I and A rhyme. Toss in a minor and a hint at the chorus.

Am
I think upon those nights
G
They drift away
F C G
Time after Time

Now lets make a Transition

F
Do you remember
C
those days that we shared?
F
Do you remember
G
the past its still there


I'm thinking an F C G riff for chorus.

F C G
The years they keep passing bye
F C G
No time to wonder why x2


Just some ideas. I have no idea how the melody goes, or even the style. Just went with open chords, nice and easy. I imagine something somber. as Poe would say, Melancholy.

That said, I again emphasize how important the style and chords are. I translated it to bar chords, more a rock song. It changes, with open chords we have a hi F, bar chords give as a low f.

That said,
C, G, C, G
A, G (F C G still works) might want to double A, G
so A,G,A,G
F,C,G,F,C,G
The transition changes,
F, G, F, G
chorus as well
C,G,F (G) x4

of course we add those changes, at the very least now, we've doubled on the transition, so we need more lyrics, same with chorus. Might want to make it more salty, punk it out like greenday. Up to you.
