We Can Work It Out
Try to see it my way,
Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on
While you see it your way, run the risk of knowing
That our love may soon be gone
We can work it out
We can work it out
Think of what you've saying
You can get it wrong and still you think that
It's all right
Think of what I'm saying we can work it out
And get it straight or say good night
We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
Try to see it my way,
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart
Before too long
We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
Try to see it my way,
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart
Before too long
We can work it out
We can work it out

Rain
If the rain comes they run and hide their heads.
They might as well be dead.
If the rain comes, if the rain comes.
When the sun shines they slip into the shade
(When the sun shines down.)
And sip their lemonade.
(When the sun shines down.)
When the sun shines, when the sun shines.
Rain, I don't mind.
Shine, the weather's fine.
I can show you that when it starts to rain,
(When the rain comes down.)
Everything's the same.
(When the rain comes down.)
I can show you, I can show you.
Rain, I don't mind.
Shine, the weather's fine.
Can you hear me, that when it rains and shines,
(When it rains and shines.)
It's just a state of mind?
(When it rains and shines.)
Can you hear me, can you hear me?

Lady Madonna
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 creeping 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.
Tuesday afternoon is never ending,
Wednesday morning papers didn't come,
Thursday night your stockings needed mending.
See how they run.
Lady Madonna, children at your feet,
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.
The Inner Light
Without going out of my door
I can know all things on earth
With out looking out of my window
I can 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
With out looking out of your window
You can know the ways of heaven
The farther one travels
The less one knows
The less one really knows
Arrive without traveling
See all without looking
Do all without doing
Hey Jude
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulder
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Da da da da da da da da
Hey Jude, don't let me down
You have found her now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
So let it out and let it in
Hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder
Na na na na na na na na na yeah
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better, better, better, better
Better, better Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Na na na na na na na na na na na Hey Jude
Na na na na na na na na na na na Hey Jude

Get Back
Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it wouldn't last.
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass.
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back Jojo. Go home
Get back, get back.
Back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back.
Back to where you once belonged.
Get back Jo.
Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman
But she was another man
All the girls around her said she's got it coming
But she gets it while she can
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged.
Get back Loretta. Go home
Ah get back, yeah get back.
Yeah get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back.

Wearing her high-heel shoes
And her low-neck sweater
Get back home Loretta
Get back, get back.
Get back to where you once belonged.
Ah get back, get back, get back
Don't Let Me Down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down

Don't let me down
Nobody ever loved me like she does
Ooo she does, Yes, she does.
And if somebody loved me like she do me,
Ooo she do me, Yes, she does
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down

The Ballad Of John And Yoko
Standing in the dock at southampton,
Trying to get to Holland or France
The man in the mac said you've got to go back
You know they didn't even give us a chance
Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
The way things are going they're going to crucify me
Finally made the plane into Paris,
Honeymooning down my the Seine
Peter Brown called to say, you can make it O.K.
You You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain
Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
The way things are going they're going to crucify me
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
Talking in out beds for a week.
The newspapers said, say what're you doing in bed
I said we're only trying to get us some peace
Christ you know it ain't east, you know how hard it can be
The way things are going they're going to crucify me
Saving up your money for a rainy day,
Giving all your clothes to charity.
Last night the wife said, oh boy, when you're dead
You don't take nothing with you but you're soul- Think
Made a lightning trip to Vienna
Eating chocolate cake in a bag
The newspapers said she's gone to his head
They look just like two gurus in drag
Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
The way things are going they're going to crucify me
Caught the early plane back to London
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
The men from the press said we wish you success
It's good to have the both of you back
Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
The way things are going they're going to crucify me
The way things are going they're going to crucify me
Old Brown Shoe
I want a love that's right
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,
Replacing every thoughtless frown.
Got me escaping from this zoo,
Baby I'm in love with you
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.
I may appear to be imperfect,
My love is something you can't reject.
Changing faster than the weather,
If you and me should get together
Who knows baby you may comfort me.
That love of yours to miss that love
Is something I 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 when I'm with you
I'm so glad you can here,
It won't be the same now when I'm with you
Across The Universe
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,
That 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 life 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

Let It Be
When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Yeah there will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Yeah there will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on till tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
