WOMAN DON'T YOU CRY FOR ME
By George Harrison

I'm gonna leave you here,
I'm gonna leave you at the station.
I've got a long way to go, baby,
Woman, don't you cry for me.

Now I can't take no more,
No, I don't need no complication.
I've got a long way to go, baby,
Woman, don't you cry for me.

There's no place I want to be,
Attachment only hurts me.
Take care of yourself, baby,
C'mon, won't you let me be?

There's just one thing I got to see,
That's the lord, got to keep him in sight.
Take care of yourself, baby,
C'mon, won't you let me be?

There's just one thing I got to see,
That's the lord, got to keep him in sight.
Better take care of yourself, baby,
C'mon, won't you let me be?

Now, baby, here's the door,
And I don't need no aggravation.
I've got a long way to go, baby,
Woman, don't you cry for me.

We've got a long way to go, baby,
Woman, don't you cry for me.


DEAR ONE
By George Harrison
Dedicated to Premavatar Paramahansa Yogananda

Dear one, near me,
Truth assessed.
Reborn world-wide,
Mind at rest.
True heart sow you,
God has blessed.
Your soul whispers,
Love confessed.

My spirit sings to you now,
Creation stands at your feet.
My feelings call to you now,
Dear one, I love (a) you.

You hear my spirit sing for you,
You see creation at your feet.
You feel my feelings calling you,
You know, dear one, I love (a) you.

Sear one, show me,
Simple grace.
Move me toward thee,
With each pace.


BEAUTIFUL GIRL
By George Harrison

Never seen such a beautiful girl,
Got me shaking inside.
Calling on me from deep within her eyes.
Not the kind you go handing around,
Wanna keep her right there.
But this love, it don't come as no surprise.

And when I saw the way that she smiled at me,
I knew it there and then that she was A1.
And then I felt the way she was touching me,
Was something I had known I was waiting upon.

Never seen such a beautiful girl,
Had me quickly untied.
Calling to me, she made me realise.
Not the kind that is lost or is found,
She has always been there,
A lover needed for this soul to survive.

And when I saw the way that she smiled at me,
I knew it there and then that she was A1.
And then I felt the way she's got through to me,
Was something I had known I was waiting upon.


THIS SONG
By George Harrison

This song, has nothing tricky about it,
This song, ain't black or white and as far as I know,
Don't infringe on anyone's copyright so...

This song we'll let be,
This song is in E,
This song is for you and...

And this tune has nothing "bright" about it,
This tune, ain't bad or good and come ever what may,
My expert tells me it's okay.

As this song came to me
Unknowingly,
This song could be you, could be...

"Could be 'sugar pie, honey bunch'!
"No! Sounds more like 'rescue me'!"

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

And this riff ain't tryin' to win gold medals,
This riff, ain't hip or square, well done or rare,
May end up one more weight to bear.

But this song could well be
A reason to see
That without you there's no point to this song.


SEE YOURSELF
By George Harrison
Dedicated to Premavatar Paramahansa Yogananda

It's easier to tell a lie than it is to tell the truth.
It's easier to kill a fly than it is to turn it loose.
It's easier to criticise somebody else than to see yourself, oo-oo.

It's easier to give a sigh and be like all the rest
Who stand around and crucify you while you do your best.
It's easier to see the books upon the shelf than to see yourself, oo-oo.

It's easier to hurt someone and make them cry
Than it is to dry their eyes.
I got tired of fooling 'round with other people's lies,
Rather i'd find someone that's true.

It's easier to say you won't than it is to feel you can.
It's easier to drag your feet than it is to be a man.
It's easier to look at someone else's wealth than to see yourself, oo-oo.

See yourself.

It's easier to see the books upon the shelf than to see yourself, oo-oo.
It's easier to criticise somebody else than to see yourself, oo-oo.


IT'S WHAT YOU VALUE
By George Harrison

Someone's driving a 450,
And his friends are so wild.
They're still in their stick shifties,
But they feel they have much more style.
But I've found:

It's all up to what you value,
Down to where you are.
It all swings on the pain you've gone through,
Getting where you are.

It's all up to what you value,
In your motor car.
It all rests on what it's cost you,
Getting where you are,
It's what you value.

Someone's driving a six-wheeler,
Seems the world is all blurred.
Knows he's in a show stealer
With a sound that's uncompared.
And I've found

And I've found, I've found:


TRUE LOVE
By Cole Porter

You give to me and I give to you,
True love,
It's a true love.
And on and on it will always be,
True love,
True love.

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high with nothing to do.

But to give to me and to give to you,
A love forever true,
It's a love forever true.

True love,
It's a true love.

True love,
True love.

But to give to me and to give to you,
A love forever true,
A love forever true,
It's a love forever true.


PURE SMOKEY
By George Harrison

Smokey, oo.

Throughout my lifetimes I'd hesitate,
I'd feel some joy,
But before I'd show my thanks, it became too late.
But now all the way, I wanna find the time and stop to say,
I wanna thank you, Lord, for giving us each new day.
Oo.

Thinking back over so many years,
Love that's filled my ears.
I wanna thank you, lord, for giving us pure smokey.

And anyone who hears that voice so free,
He really got a hold on me.
And I thank you all for giving us pure smokey,
Pure smokey, oo,
Smokey, pure smokey, oo.

Thank you, Lord.

He's singing it so sweetly, like no one else could do,
Always trying something new.
And I thank you, Lord, for giving us pure smokey
(Thank you, Lord)

And anyone who hears, hears that voice so free,
He really got a hold on me.
And I thank you, Lord, for giving us pure smokey,
Smokey, oo.

Thank you, Lord.


CRACKERBOX PALACE
By George Harrison

I was so young when I was born,
My eyes could not yet see.
And by the time of my first dawn,
Somebody holding me.

They said:
I welcome you to crackerbox palace,
We've been expecting you.
You bring such joy in crackerbox palace,
No matter where you roam,
Know our love is true.

While growing up, or trying to,
Not knowing where to start.
I looked around for someone who
May help reveal my heart.

And someone said:
While you're a part of crackerbox palace,
Do what the rest all do.
Or face the fact that crackerbox palace,
May have no other choice than to deport you.

And we welcome you to crackerbox palace,
We've been expecting you.
You bring such joy in crackerbox palace,
No matter where you roam,
Know our love is true.

It's true, it's true.

Sometimes are good, sometimes are bad,
That's all a part of life.
And standing in between them all,
I met a mister grief.

And he said:
I welcome you to crackerbox palace,
Was not expecting you.
Let's rap and tap at crackerbox palace,
Know that the lord is well and inside of you.

You bring such joy in crackerbox palace,
No matter where you roam,
Know our love,
Know our love is true.


LEARNING HOW TO LOVE YOU
By George Harrison
Dedicated to Herbie Alpert

While all is still in the night,
And silence starts its flow,
Become or disbelieve me.
Left alone with my heart,
I'm learning how to love you.

While waiting on the light,
How patience learned to grow,
Endeavour could believe me.
Left alone with my heart,
I'm learning how to love you.

Love you like you may have never been,
Move you more ways than you have seen.
To a point in the time where we see much more
Than the ground that we touch
With each step so unsure.

As teardrops cloud the sight,
Your eyes may never know,
No truth could ever fear me.
Left alone with my heart,
Learning how to love you.
