DISC ONE

WAH WAH

By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

(Wah-wah) You've given me a wah-wah,
And I'm thinking of you,
All the things that we used to do.
(Wah-wah)
(Wah-wah)

(Wah-wah) You made me such a big star,
Being there at the right time,
Cheaper than a dime.
(Wah-wah)
(Wah-wah)

Oh, you don't hear me crying, no, no,
Oh, you don't hear me sighing.
No, no, no, no, no, no.

(Wah-wah) I don't need no wah-wah, no, no,
And I know how sweet life can be
If I'll keep myself free.
(Wah-wah) I don't need no (wah-wah)

(Wah-wah)

(Wah-wah)

Really wanna be with you,
Really wanna see you, Lord,
But it takes so long, my Lord.

Really wanna know you,
Really wanna go with you,
Really want to show you, Lord,
That it won't take long, my Lord (Hallelujah).

AWAITING ON YOU ALL
By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

You don't need no love in,
You don't need no bed pan,
You don't need a horoscope or a microscope
To see the mess that you're in.

If you open up your heart,
You'll know what I mean,
You've been polluted so long,
Now, here's a way for you to get clean.

By chanting the names of the Lord and you'll be free.
The Lord is awaiting on you all to awaken and see.
Chanting the names of the Lord and you'll be free.
The Lord is awaiting on you all to awaken and see.

You don't need no passport,
You don't need no visas,
You don't need to designate or to emigrate
Before you can see Jesus.

If you open up your heart,
You'll see he's right there,
He always was and will be,
He'll relieve you of your cares.

You don't need no...
You don't need no...
You don't need no ros'ry beads or them books to read
To see that you have fallen.

If you open up your heart,
You'll see what I mean,
We've been kept down so long,
Someone's thinking that we're all green.

While the pope owns fifty-one percent of General Motors,
And the stock exchange is the only thing he's qualified to quote us.
But the Lord is awaiting on you all to awaken and see.
By chanting the names of the Lord and you'll be free.


DISC TWO

BEWARE OF DARKNESS

By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

Watch out now,
Take care beware of falling swingers,
Dropping all around you.
The pain that often mingles in your fingertips,
Beware of darkness.

Watch out now,
Take care beware of thoughts that linger,
Winding up inside your head.
The hopelessness around you in the dead of night,
Beware of sadness.

It can hit you (oh, oh, oh, oh),
It may hurt you (oh yeah),
Make you sore and what is more,
That is not what we are here for.

Watch out now,
Take care beware of soft shoe shufflers,
Come dancing down the sidewalks.
As each unconscious sufferer wanders aimlessly,
Beware of maya.

Watch out now,
Take care beware of greedy leaders,
They'll take you where you should not go.
While weeping atlas cedars they just want to grow,
Grow and grow,
Beware of darkness.

(Beware of darkness)


WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS
By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

I look at you all,
See the love there that's sleeping,
While my guitar gently weeps.
I look at the floor
And I see it needs sweeping;
Still my guitar gently weeps.

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love,
I don't know how someone controlled you,
They bought and sold you.

I look at the world
And I notice it's turning,
While my guitar gently weeps.
With ev'ry mistake
We must surely be learning,
Still my guitar gently weeps.

I don't know how you were diverted,
You were perverted too.
I don't know how you were inverted,
No one alerted you.

I look at you all,
See the love there that's sleeping,
While my guitar gently weeps.
Look at you all...
Still my guitar gently weeps.


HERE COMES THE SUN
By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

Here comes the sun, doo doo doo doo,
Here comes the sun,
I say, "It's all right".

Little darling,
It's been a long, cold, lonely winter.
Little darling,
It feels like years since it's been here.

Little darling,
The smiles returning to their faces.
Little darling,
It seems like years since it's been here.

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes,
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes,
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes,
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes.

Little darling,
I see the ice is slowly melting.
Little darling,
It seems like years since it's been clear.

"It's all right".


DISC THREE

SOMETHING

By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

Something in the way she moves,
Attracts me like no other lover.
Something in the way she woos me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe, and how.

Somewhere in the way she smiles,
And I don't need no other lover.
Something in her style that shows me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe, and how.

You're asking me will my love grow,
I don't know, I don't know.
You stick around now, it may show,
I don't know, I don't know.

Something in the way she knows,
All I have to do is think of her.
Something in the things she shows me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe, and how.


BANGLA DESH
By George Harrison
Recorded live August 1, 1971 at the Madison Square Garden, New York

My friend came to me,
Sadness in his eyes,
Told me that he wanted help
'Fore his country dies.

Although I couldn't feel the pain,
I knew I had to try.
Now I'm asking all of you
To help us save some lives.

Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh,
Where so many people are dying fast
And it sure looks like a mess.
I've never seen such distress.
Now, won't you lend your hand, and understand?
We got to relieve Bangla Desh.

Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh,
Such a great disaster, I don't understand,
But it sure looks like a mess.
I've never known such distress.
Please don't turn away, wanna hear you say,
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh.

Relieve Bangla Desh.

Bangla Desh, Bangla Desh,
Now it may seem so far from where we all are,
It's something we can't reject,
It's something I can't neglect.
I want you to give something, get the starving fed,
We got to relieve Bangla Desh.

Relieve the people of Bangla Desh.

We got to relieve Bangla Desh.

Relieve the people of Bangla Desh.
