Yellow Submarine

(Lennon-McCartney)



In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed the sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines

So we sailed on to the sun
'Til we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
A yellow submarine

And our friends are all aboard
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play

We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
A yellow submarine

As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need
Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine
A yellow submarine

Only A Northern Song

(Harrison)


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 Northen 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 Northen 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

All Together Now

(Lennon-McCartney)


One, two three, four
Can I have a little more?
Five, six
Seven, eight, nine, ten...I love you

A, B, C, D
Can I bring my friend to tea?
E, F, G, H, I, J...I love you

Bom bom bom bom-pa-bom
Sail the ship
Bom-pa-bom
Chop the tree
Bom-pa-bom
Skip the rope
Bom-pa-bom
Look at me
All together now

All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)

Black, white, green, red
Can I take my friend to bed?
Pink, brown, yellow, orange and blue...I love you
All together now

All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)

Bom bom bom bom-pa-bom
Sail the ship
Bom-pa-bom
Chop the tree
Bom-pa-bom
Skip the rope
Bom-pa-bom
Look at me
All together now

All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)

All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)
All together now (All together now)

Hey Bulldog

(Lennon-McCartney)


Sheepdog
Standing in the rain
Bullfrog
Doing it again
Some kind of happiness
is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something
special when you smile?

Child-like
No one understands
Jack-knife
In your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocence
is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like
to listen to your fears

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me

Big man
Walking in the park
Wigwam
Frightened of the dark
Some kind of solitude
is measured out in you
You think you know it
but you haven't got a clue

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me

Hey bulldog!
Hey bulldog!
Hey bulldog!
Hey bulldog!

It's All Too Much

(Harrison)



It's too much
It's too much

When I look into your eyes
Your love is there for me
And the more I go inside
The more there is to see

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
for us to take it's all too much

Floating down the stream of time
From life to life with me
Makes no difference where you are
Or where you'd like to be

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around here
All the world is birthday cake
So take a piece but not too much

Sail me on a silver sun
Where I know that I'm free
Show me that I'm everywhere
Then get me home for tea

It's all too much for me to see
The love that's shining all around you
The more I learn, the less I know
But what I do is all too much

It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
for us to take it's all too much

Ah! It's too much
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
You're too much
We are dead, ah!
Too much, too much, too much

All You Need Is Love

(Lennon-McCartney)


There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can do
But you can learn how to play the game
It's easy

Nothing you can make that can't be made
No one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do
But you can learn how to be you in time
It's easy

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need

Nothing you can know that isn't known
Nothing you can see that isn't shown
Nowhere you can be
That isn't where you're meant to be
It's easy

All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need

All you need is love (All together now!)
All you need is love (Everybody!)
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need

Love is all you need (Love is all you need)
Love is all you need (Love is all you need)
Love is all you need (Love is all you need)
Love is all you need (Love is all you need)

Yes it is
Oh yeah!
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
