ELEANOR RIGBY
The Beatles (Lennon-McCartney)
I: Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
C - - - / / Em - - - / / x4 //
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church
Where a wedding has been - lives in a dream
Waits at the window wearing the face that she keeps
In a jar by the door - who is it for?
Em - - - / / / C - - - / - - Em - / x5 //
C: All the lonely people, where do they all come from
All the lonely people, where do they all belong
Em7 - - - / Em6 - - - / C - - - / Em - - - / x4 //
Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon
That no one will hear - no one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night
When there's nobody there - what does he care?
C: All the lonely people, where do they all come from
All the lonely people, where do they all belong
I: Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried
Along with her name - nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands
As he walks from the grave - no one was saved
C: All the lonely people, where do they all come from
All the lonely people, where do they all belong
