Old Brown Shoe (demo)

demo)

I want a love that's right but right is only half of what's wrong

I want a short haired girl who sometimes wears it twice as long

Now I'm stepping out this old brown shoe, baby, I'm in love with you

I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now, I'm telling you



You know you pick me up from where some try to drag me down

And when I see your smile replace every thoughtless frown

Got me escaping from this zoo, baby, I'm in love with you

I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now when I'm with you



If I grow up I'll be a singer wearing rings on every finger

Not worrying what they or you say I'll live and love and maybe someday

Who knows, baby, you may comfort me



Do do do do...



I may appear to be imperfect, my love is something you can't reject

I'm changing faster than the weather if you and me should get together

Who knows, baby, you may comfort me



I want that love of yours, to miss that love is something I'd hate

I'll make an early start, I'm making sure that I'm not late

For your sweet top lip I'm in the queue, baby, I'm in love with you

I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now I'm telling you

I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now when I'm with you

Strawberry Fields Forever (take 7 & edit piece)

RM3, mono mix of take 7)

Let me take you down, cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about

Strawberry Fields forever



Living is easy with eyes closed

Misunderstanding all you see

It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out

It doesn't matter much to me



No one I think is in my tree

I mean it must be high or low

That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right

That is I think it's not too bad



Let me take you down, cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about

Strawberry Fields forever



Always, no sometimes, think it's me

But you know I know when it's a dream

I think I know I mean a "Yes" but it's all wrong

That is I think I disagree



Let me take you down, cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields

Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about

Strawberry Fields forever

Strawberry Fields forever

Strawberry Fields forever



(crossfade into edit piece)



(edit piece)

Drum solo



[Cranberry sauce, cranberry sauce.



All right,

calm down, there you go.

Slow down then.]

And I Love Her

give her all my love

That's all I do

And if you saw my love

You'd love her too

I love her



She gives me everything

And tenderly

The kiss my lover brings

She brings to me

And I love her



A love like ours

Could never die

As long as I

Have you near me



Bright are the stars that shine

Dark is the sky

I know this love of mine

Will never die

And I love her



Bright are the stars that shine

Dark is the sky

I know this love of mine

Will never die

And I love her

Lady Madonna (takes 3 and 4)

take 3 for the basic track of piano and drums with overdubs of guitar, bass, vocals and more drums,

and take 4 for overdubs, particularly saxes)

Lady Madonna, children at your feet

Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

Who finds the money? When you pay the rent?

Did you think that money was Heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase

Sunday morning creep in like a nun

Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace

See how they run



Lady Madonna, baby at your breast

Wonders how you manage to feed the rest



See how they run



Lady Madonna, lying on the bed

Listen to the music playing in your head



See how they run



Lady Madonna, children at your feet

Wonder how you manage to make ends meet



[Lady Madonna.]

Paperback Writer

aperback writer



Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?

It took me years to write, will you take a look?

It's based on a novel by a man named Lear

And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer

Paperback writer



It's the dirty story of a dirty man

And his clinging wife doesn't understand

His son is working for the Daily Mail

It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer

Paperback writer



Paperback writer



It's a thousand pages, give or take a few

I'll be writing more in a week or two

I can make it longer if you like the style

I can change it round and I want to be a paperback writer

Paperback writer



If you really like it you can have the rights

It could make a million for you overnight

If you must return it, you can send it here

But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer

Paperback writer



Paperback writer



Paperback writer, paperback writer

Paperback writer, paperback writer

Paperback writer, paperback writer

Paperback writer, paperback writer (fade out)

Penny Lane

n Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs

Of every head he's had the pleasure to know

And all the people that come and go

Stop and say hello



On the corner is a banker with a motorcar

The little children laugh at him behind his back

And the banker never wears a mack

In the pouring rain, very strange



Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes

There beneath the blue suburban skies

I sit, and meanwhile back



In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass

And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen

He likes to keep his fire engine clean

It's a clean machine



Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes

A four of fish and finger pies

In summer, meanwhile back



Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout

The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray

And though she feels as if she's in a play

She is anyway



In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer

We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim

And then the fireman rushes in

From the pouring rain, very strange



Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes

There beneath the blue suburban skies

I sit, and meanwhile back

Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes

There beneath the blue suburban skies

Penny Lane

A Hard Day's Night

t's been a hard day's night, and I'd been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Will make me feel alright



You know I work all day to get you money to buy you things

And it's worth it just to hear you say you're going to give me everything

So why on earth should I moan, cos when I get you alone

You know I feel OK



When I'm home everything seems to be right

When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah



It's been a hard day's night, and I'd been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Will make me feel alright owww



So why on earth should I moan, cos when I get you alone

You know I feel OK



When I'm home everything seems to be right

When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah



It's been a hard day's night, and I'd been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Will make me feel alright

You know I feel alright

You know I feel alright

Things We Said Today

ou say you will love me

If I have to go

You'll be thinking of me

Somehow I will know

Someday when I'm lonely

Wishing you weren't so far away

Then I will remember

Things we said today



You say you'll be mine, girl

Till the end of time

These days such a kind girl

Seems so hard to find

Someday when we're dreaming

Deep in love, not a lot to say

Then we will remember

Things we said today



Me, I'm just the lucky kind

Love to hear you say that love is luck

And though we may be blind

Love is here to stay and that's enough



To make you mine, girl

Be the only one

Love me all the time, girl

We'll go on and on

Someday when we're dreaming

Deep in love, not a lot to say

Then we will remember

Things we said today



Me, I'm just the lucky kind

Love to hear you say that love is luck

Though we may be blind

Love is here to stay and that's enough



To make you mine, girl

Be the only one

Love me all the time, girl

We'll go on and on

Someday when we're dreaming

Deep in love, not a lot to say

Then we will remember

Things we said today

Yellow Submarine (alternate version)

Yellow Submarine... and we would march till

three in the day to see them gather there.

From Land of Goats to Jonah Green we'd step in duty trail

to see his yellow submarine, we love it]

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed to sea

And he told us of his life

In the land of submarines



So we sailed up to the sun

Till we found the sea of green

And we lived beneath the waves

In our yellow submarine



We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine



And our friends are all on board

Many more of them live next door

And the band begins to play



We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine



[Full speed ahead, Mr. Parker, full speed ahead!

Full speed over here, sir!

Action station! Action station!

Aye, aye, sir, fire!

Heaven! Heaven!]



As we live a life of ease (A life of ease)

Everyone of us (Everyone of us) has all we need (Has all we need)

Sky of blue (Sky of blue) and sea of green (Sea of green)

In our yellow (In our yellow) submarine (Submarine, ha, ha)



We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine (fade out)
