HELP!

(Lennon-McCartney)

Help!
I need somebody
Help!
Not just anybody
Help!
You know I need someone
Help!

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured
And now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the doors

Help me if you can I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate your being ‘round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me!

And now my life has changed in oh-so many ways
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like I've never done before

Help me if you can I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate your being ‘round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me!

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured
And now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the doors

Help me if you can I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate your being ‘round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me!
Help me, help me! Oooooh!

THE NIGHT BEFORE

(Lennon-McCartney)


We said our goodbyes
The night before
Love was in your eyes
The night before
Now today I find
You have changed your mind
Treat me like you did the night before

Were you telling lies
The night before?
Was I so unwise
The night before?
When I held you near
You were so sincere
Treat me like you did the night before

Last night is the night I will remember you by
When I think of things we did it makes me want to cry

We said our goodbyes
The night before
Love was in your eyes
The night before
Now today I find
You have changed your mind
Treat me like you did the night before

When I held you near
You were so sincere
Treat me like you did the night before

Last night is the night I will remember you by
When I think of things we did it makes me want to cry

Were you telling lies
The night before?
Was I so unwise
The night before?
When I held you near
You were so sincere
Treat me like you did the night before
Like the night before

YOU'VE GOT TO HIDE YOUR LOVE AWAY

(Lennon-McCartney)

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two foot small

Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say

Hey! You've got to hide your love away.
Hey! You've got to hide your love away.

How can I even try?
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in
How could she say to me
"Love will find a way"?
Gather ‘round, all you clowns
Let me hear you say

Hey! You've got to hide your love away.
Hey! You've got to hide your love away.

I NEED YOU

(Harrison)


You don't realize how much I need you
Love you all the time and never leave you
Please come on back to me
I'm lonely as can be
I need you

Said you had a thing or two to tell me
How was I to know you would upset me
I didn't realize
As I looked in your eyes
You told me

Oh yes, you told me
You don't want my loving anymore
That's when it hurt me
And feeling like this
I just can't go on anymore

Please remember how I fell about you
I could never really live without you
So come on back and see
Just what you mean to me
I need you

But when you told me
You don't want my loving anymore
That's when it hurt me
And feeling like this
I just can't go on anymore

Please remember how I fell about you
I could never really live without you
So come on back and see
Just what you mean to me
I need you
I need you
I need you

ANOTHER GIRL

(Lennon-McCartney)


For I have got
Another girl
Another girl

You're making me say that I've got
Nobody but you
But as from today, well I've got
Somebody that's new
I ain't no fool and I don't take what I don't want
For I have got
Another girl
Another girl

She's sweeter than all the girls and
I've had quite a few
Nobody in all the world can
Do what she can do
And so I'm telling you this time you'd better stop
For I have got
Another girl
Another girl...

who will love me ‘til the end
Through thick and thin
She will always be my friend

I don't want to say that I've been
Unhappy with you
But as from today, well I've seen
Somebody that's new
I ain't no fool and I don't take what I don't want
For I have got
Another girl
Another girl

who will love me ‘til the end
Through thick and thin
She will always be my friend

I don't want to say that I've been
Unhappy with you
But as from today, well I've seen
Somebody that's new
I ain't no fool and I don't take what I don't want
For I have got
Another girl
Another girl

(Lennon-McCartney)

I think I'm gonna be sad
I think it's today, yeah
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
And she don't care

She said that living with me
Was bringing her down, yeah
She would never be free
When I was around

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
And she don't care

I don't know why she's riding so high
She oughta think twice
She oughta do right by me
Before she gets to saying goodbye
She oughta think twice
She oughta do right by me

I think I'm gonna be sad
I think it's today, yeah
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away

She's got a ticket to ride

ACT NATURALLY

(Morrison-Russell)

They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally

Well I bet you I'm gonna be a big star
I might win an Oscar, you can never tell
The movies gonna make me a big star
‘Cos I can play the part so well

Well I hope you'll come and see me in the movies
Then I know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally

We'll make the scene about a man that's sad and lonely
And begging down upon his bended knee
I'll play the part and I won't need rehersing
All I have to do is act naturally

Well I bet you I'm gonna be a big star
I might win an Oscar, you can never tell
The movies gonna make me a big star
‘Cos I can play the part so well

Well I hope you'll come and see me in the movies
Then I know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally

IT'S ONLY LOVE

(Lennon-McCartney)


I get high when I see you
go by
My, oh my
When you sigh, my, my inside
just flies
Butterflies
Why am I so shy
When I'm beside you

It's only love, and that is all
Why do I feel the way I do
It's only love and that is all
But it's so hard loving you

Is it right that you and I
Should fight
Every night?
Just the sight of you makes
Nighttime bright
Very bright
Haven't I the right
To make it up girl?

It's only love, and that is all
Why do I feel the way I do
It's only love and that is all
But it's so hard loving you
Yes it's so hard loving you
Loving you

YOU LIKE ME TOO MUCH

(Harrison)


Though you've gone away this morning
You'll be back again tonight
Telling me there'll be no next time
If I just don't treat you right
You'll never leave me and you know it's true
‘Cos you like me too much and I like you

You've tried before to leave me
But you haven't got the nerve
To walk out and leave me lonely
Which is all that I deserve
You'll never leave me and you know it's true
‘Cos you like me too much and I like you

I really do
And it's nice when you believe me
If you leave me

I will follow you
And bring you back where you belong
‘Cos I couldn't really stand it
I'd admit that I was wrong
I wouldn't let you leave me ‘cos it's true
‘Cos you like me too much and I like you

‘Cos you like me too much and I like you

I really do
And it's nice when you believe me
If you leave me

I will follow you
And bring you back where you belong
‘Cos I couldn't really stand it
I'd admit that I was wrong
I wouldn't let you leave me ‘cos it's true
‘Cos you like me too much and I like you
‘Cos you like me too much and I like you

TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE

(Lennon-McCartney)


If you let me take your heart
I will prove to you
We will never be apart
If I'm part of you

Open up your eyes now
Tell me what you see
It is no surprise now
What you see is me

Big and black the clouds may be
Time will pass away
If you put your trust in me
I'll make bright your day

Open up your eyes now
Tell me what you see
Don't you realize now
What you see is me

Tell me what you see

Listen to me one more time
How can I get through?
Can't you try to see that I'm
Trying to get to you

Open up your eyes now
Tell me what you see
It is no surprise now
What you see is me

Listen to me one more time
How can I get through?
Can't you try to see that I'm
Trying to get to you

Open up your eyes now
Tell me what you see
It is no surprise now
What you see is me

I'VE JUST SEEN A FACE

(Lennon-McCartney)

I've just seen a face I can't forget
The time or place when we first met
She's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see
We've met
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I had never been aware
But as it is I'll dream of her
Tonight
La-da-da-da-da-da

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
me back again

I have never known the like of this
I've been alone and I have missed
things, and kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite
Like this
La-da-da-da-da-da
Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
me back again

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
me back again

I've just seen a face I can't forget
The time or place when we first met
She's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see
We've met
Mm-mm-mm-da-da-da

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
me back again

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
me back again

Wo...Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
me back again

YESTERDAY

(Lennon-McCartney)


Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though their hear to stay
Oh, I believe
In yesterday

Suddenly
I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
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

DIZZY MISS LIZZY

(Williams)


You make me dizzy Miss Lizzie
The way you rock and roll
You make me dizzy Miss Lizzie
When you do the stroll
C'mon Miss Lizzie
Oh, before I grow too old

C'mon give me fever
Put your little hand in mine
You make me dizzy Miss Lizzie
Ooh, girl you look so fine
Just a-rockin' and a-rollin'
Girl I said I wish you were mine

You make me dizzy Miss Lizzie
When you call my name
Ooooh, baby
I say you're driving me insane
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon c'mon baby
I wanna be your loving man

Run and tell your mama
I want you to be my bride
Run and tell your brother
Baby don't run and hide
You make me dizzy Miss Lizzie
Girl I want to marry you

C'mon give me fever
Put your little hand in mine girl
You make me dizzy dizzy Lizzie
Girl you look so fine
You're just a-rockin' and a-rollin'
Ooh, I said I wish you were mine
