Across The Universe (take 2)

(take 2)

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup

They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe

Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind

Possessing and caressing me

Jai Guru Deva OM



Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world



Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes

They call me on and on across the universe

Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box

They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe

Jai Guru Deva OM



Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world



Sounds of laughter shades of live are ringing through my open ears

Inciting and inviting me

Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns

It calls me on and on

Across the universe

Jai Guru Deva OM



Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world



Jai Guru Deva

Jai Guru Deva

Jai Guru Deva

Tell Me Why

Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me



Well I gave you everything I had

But you left me sitting on my own

Did you have to treat me oh so bad

All I do is hang my head and moan



Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me



If there's something I have said or done

Tell me what and I'll apologise

If you don't really can't go on

Holding back these tears in my eyes



Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me



Well I beg you on my bended knees

If you'll only listen to my please

Is there anything I can do

Cos I really can't stand it, I'm so in love with you



Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

Good Morning, Good Morning

Good morning, good morning

Good morning, good morning

Good morning ah



Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in

Nothing to say but what a day how's your boy been

Nothing to do it's up to you

I've got nothing to say but it's OK



Good morning, good morning

Good morning ah



Going to work don't want to go feeling low down

Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town

Everybody knows there's nothing doing

Everything is closed it's like a ruin

Everyone you see is half asleep

And you're on your own you're in the street



After a while you start to smile now you feel cool

Then you decide to take a walk by the old school

Nothing is changed it's still the same

I've got nothing to say but it's OK



Good morning, good morning

Good morning ah



People running round it's five o'clock

Everywhere in town is getting dark

Everyone you see is full of life

It's time for tea and meet the wife



Somebody needs to know the time, glad that I'm here

Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you're in gear

Go to a show you hope she goes

I've got nothing to say but it's OK



Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

Good morning, good morning, good

The Inner Light

Without going out of my door

I can know all things on Earth

Without looking out of my window

I could know the ways of Heaven



The farther one travels

The less one knows

The less one really knows



Without going out of your door

You can know all things on Earth

Without looking out of your window

You could know the ways of Heaven



The farther one travels

The less one knows

The less one really knows



Arrive without travelling

See all without looking

Do all without doing

Here Comes The Sun

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right



Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter

Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right



Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces

Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right



Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes



Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting

Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

And I say it's all right



Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

It's all right, it's all right

About half a million

Framed autographs

Tight dresses and lipstick

She's blowing high healed shoes

Well by tomorrow morning

Rock And Roll Music

Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

It's gotta be rock and roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me



I've got no kick against modern jazz

Unless they try to play it too darn fast

And lose the beauty of the melody

Until they sound just like a symphony



That's why I go for that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

It's gotta be rock and roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me



I took my loved one over across the tracks

So she can hear my man awail a sax

I must admit they have a rocking band

Man, they were blowing like a hurricane



That's why I go for that that rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

It's gotta be rock and roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me



Way down South they had a jubilee

The jokey folks they had a jamboree

They're drinking home brew from a water cup

The folks dancing there are all shook up



And started playing that that rock and roll music

Any old time you use it

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

It's gotta be rock and roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me



Don't care to hear them play a tango

And In The Mood they take a mambo

It's way to early for a congo

So keep a rocking that piano



That's why I go for that rock and roll music

Any old time you use it

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

Any old time you use it

Gotta be rock and roll music

If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me

Something (demo)

(demo)

Something in the way she moves

Attracts me like no other lover

Something in the way she woos me



I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe her now



Somewhere in her smile she knows

That I don't need no other lover

Something in her style that shows me



Don't want to leave her now

You know I believe her now



You're asking me will my love grow

I don't know, I don't know

Dum dum dum dum

You stick around now it may show

I don't know, I don't know

Dum dum dum dum dum



You know I love that woman of mine

And I need her all of the time

Now I'm telling you

That woman, the woman don't make me blue



Something in the way she knows

And all I have to do is think of her

Something in the things she shows me



Don't want to leave her now

You know I believe her now



You know I believe her now

I'm Looking Through You (first master version)

I'm looking through you, where did you go

I thought I knew you, what did I know?

You don't look different, but you have changed

I'm looking through you, you're not the same



Your lips are moving, I cannot hear

Your voice is soothing, but the words aren't clear

You don't sound different, I've learned the game

I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Yeah!



You're thinking of me, the same old way

You were above me, but not today

The only difference is you're down there

I'm looking through you, and you're nowhere

Yeah yeah!



The only difference is you're down there

I'm looking through you, and you're nowhere

Yeah nowhere

Yeah you're nowhere

Yeah I'm looking through you

Yeah I'm lookinh through you

Yeah I'm lookinh through you

Yeah I'm lookinh through you

Yeah you're nowhere (fade out)

Yesterday (take 1)

(take 1)

[What key is it?



It would be an F for you.

"Yesterday..."

I'm in G.

But it'll be a an F,

it goes ... E minor to A7 to the D minor.

Ready?



Here we go.



OK man.]



Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh, I believe in yesterday



Suddenly, there's a shadow hanging over me

I'm not half the man I used to be

Oh, yesterday came suddenly



Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday



Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday



Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday



Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh, I believe in yesterday

Only A Northern Song

If you're listening to this song

You may think the chords are going wrong

But they're not

He just wrote it like that



When you're listening late at night

You may think the band are not quite right

But they are

They just play it like that



It doesn't really matter what chords I play

What words I say or time of day it is

As it's only a Northern song



It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear

Or how I fare or if my hair is brown

When it's only a Northern song



If you think the harmony

Is a little dark and out of key

You're correct

There's nobody there



And I told you there's no one there

Polythene Pam

Well you should see Polythene Pam

She's so good-looking but she looks like a man

Well you should see her in drag dressed in her polythene bag

Yes you should see Polythene Pam

Yeah yeah yeah



Get a dose of her in jackboots and kilt

She's killer-diller when she's dressed to the hilt

She's the kind of a girl that makes the "News of the World"

Yes you could say she was attractively built

Yeah yeah yeah
