She loves you

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You think you lost your love,
well, I saw her yesterday.
It's you she's thinking of
and she told me what to say.

She says she loves you
and you know that can't be bad.
yes, she loves you
and you know you should be glad.

She said you hurt her so
she almost lost her mind.
but now she said she knows
you're not the hurting kind.

She says she loves you
and you know that can't be bad.
yes, she loves you
and you know you should be glad. Ooh!

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
she loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
and with a love like that
you know you should be glad.

You know it's up to you,
I think it's only fair,
pride can hurt you, too,
apologize to her.

Because she loves you
and you know that can't be bad.

Yes, she loves you

oh, she do me, yes, she does

Don't let me down.

I'm in love for the first time
don't you know it's gonna last
it's a love that lasts forever
it's a love that had no past (Seeking past).

Don't let me down.

And from the first time that she really done me
oh, she done me, she done me good
I guess nobody ever really done me
oh, she done me, she done me good.

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 by the Seine
Peter Brown called to say
"you can make it OK
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 our beds for a week
the newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace".

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.

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 your soul, think!".

Made a lightning trip to Vienna
cating 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 an 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.John: voz, guitarras, percusión.

Old brown shoe

I want a love that's right but 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 replace every thoughtless frown
got me escaping from this zoo, 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.

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
I'm changing faster than the weather if you and me should get together
who knows, baby, you may comfort me.

I want that love of yours, to miss that love is something I'd hate
I'll make an early start, I'm making sure that I'm not late
for you 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.John: coros.

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.

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.

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
Jai Guru Deva.John: voz, guitarras.
Paul: coros, piano.

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
whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
shine on until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
yeah let it be, let it be
let it be, yeah let it be
oh there will be an answer, let it be.John: coros, bajo.
