Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)

(Lennon & McCartney)

	I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me. 
	She showed me her room, isn't it good, norwegian wood? 
	She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere, 
	So I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair. 

	I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine. 
	We talked until two and then she said "It's time for bed". 
	She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh. 
	I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath. 

	And when I awoke I was alone, this bird had flown. 
	So I lit a fire, isn't it good, norwegian wood? 

You Won't See Me

(Lennon & McCartney)

	When I call you up 
	Your line's engaged 
	I have had enough 
	So act your age 
	We have lost the time 
	That was so hard to find 
	And I will lost my mind 
	If you won't see me 
	You won't see me 

	I don't know why 
	You should want to hide 
	But I can't get through 
	My hands are tied 
	I won't want to stay 
	I don't gave much to say 
	But I can't turn away 
	And you won't see me 
	You won't see me 

	Time after time 
	You refuse to even listen 
	I wouldn't mind 
	If I knew what I was missing 

	Though the days are few 
	They're filled with tears 
	And since I lost you 
	It feels like years 
	Yes, it seems so long 
	Girl, since you've been gone 
	And I just can't go on 
	If you won't see me 
	You won't see me 

	Time after time 
	You refuse to even listen 
	I wouldn't mind 
	If I knew what I was missing 

	Though the days are few 
	They're filled with tears 
	And since I lost you 
	It feels like years 
	Yes, it seems so long 
	Girl, since you've been gone 
	And I just can't go on 
	If you won't see me 
	You won't see me 

Nowhere Man

(Lennon & McCartney)

	He's a real nowhere Man, 
	Sitting in his Nowhere Land, 
	Making all his nowhere plans for nobody. 
	Doesn't have a point of view, 
	Knows not where he's going to, 
	Isn't he a bit like you and me? 

	Nowhere Man, please listen, 
	You don't know what you're missing, 
	Nowhere Man, the world is at your command. 

	He's as blind as he can be, 
	Just sees what he wants to see, 
	Nowhere Man can you see me at all? 
	Doesn't have a point of view, 
	Knows not where he's going to, 
	Isn't he a bit like you and me? 

	Nowhere Man, don't worry, 
	Take your time, don't hurry, 
	Leave it all till somebody else lend you a hand. 

	He's a real Nowhere Man, 
	Sitting in his Nowhere Land, 
	Making all his nowhere plans for nobody. 

Think For Yourself

(Harrison)

	I've got a word or two 
	To say about the things that you do 
	You're telling all those lies 
	About the good things that we can have 
	If we close our eyes 

	Do what you want to do 
	And go where you're going to 
	Think for yourself 
	'Cause I won't be there with you 

	I left you far behind 
	The ruins of the life that you had in mind 
	And though you still can't see 
	I know your mind's made up 
	You're gonna cause more misery 

	Do what you want to do 
	And go where you're going to 
	Think for yourself 
	'Cause I won't be there with you 

	Although your mind's opaque 
	Try thinking more if just for your own sake 
	The future still looks good 
	And you've got time to rectify 
	All the things that you should 

	Do what you want to do 
	And go where you're going to 
	Think for yourself 
	'Cause I won't be there with you 

	Do what you want to do 
	And go where you're going to 
	Think for yourself 
	'Cause I won't be there with you 
	Think for yourself 
	'Cause I won't be there with you 

The Word

(Lennon & McCartney)

	ay the word and you'll be free 
	Say the word and be like me 
	Say the word I'm thinking of 
	Have you heard the word is love? 
	It's so fine, It's sunshine 
	It's the word, love 

	In the beginning I misunderstood 
	But now I've got it, the word is good 

	Spread the word and you'll be free 
	Spread the word and be like be 
	Spread the work I'm thinking of 
	Have you heard the word is love? 
	It's so fine, It's sunshine 
	It's the word, love 

	Every where I go I hear it said 
	In the good and bad books that I have read 

	Say the word and you'll be free 
	Say the word and be like me 
	Say the word I'm thinking of 
	Have you heard the word is love? 
	It's so fine, It's sunshine 
	It's the word, love 

	Give the word a chance to say 
	That the word is just the way 
	It's the word I'm thinking of 
	And the only word is love 
	It's so fine, It's sunshine 
	It's the word, love 

	Now that I know what I feel must be right 
	I'm here to show everybody the light 

	Say the word and you'll be free 
	Say the word and be like me 
	Say the word I'm thinking of 
	Have you heard the word is love? 
	It's so fine, It's sunshine 
	It's the word, love 

Michelle

(Lennon & McCartney)

	Michelle, ma belle. 
	These are words that go together well, 
	My Michelle. 

	Michelle, ma belle. 
	Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble, 
	Tres bien ensemble. 

	I love you, I love you, I love you. 
	That's all I want to say. 
	Until I find a way 
	I will say the only words I know that 
	You'll understand. 

	I need to, I need to, I need to 
	I need to make you see, 
	Oh, what you mean to me. 
	Until I do I'm hoping you will 
	Know what I mean. 

	I love you. 

	I want you, I want you, I want you. 
	I think you know by now 
	I'll get to you somehow. 
	Until I do I'm telling you so 
	You'll understand. 

	Michelle, ma belle. 
	Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble, 
	Tres bien ensemble. 
	I will say the only words I know that 
	You'll understand, my Michelle. 

What Goes On

(Lennon & McCartney & Starr)

	What goes on in your heart? 
	What goes on in your mind? 
	You are tearing me apart 
	When you treat me so unkind 
	What goes on in your mind 

	The other day I saw you 
	As I walked along the road 
	But when I saw him with you 
	I could feel my future fold 
	It's so easy for a girl like you to lie 
	Tell me why 

	What goes on in your heart? 
	What goes on in your mind? 
	You are tearing me apart 
	When you treat me so unkind 
	What goes on in your mind 

	I met you in the morning 
	waiting for the tides of time 
	But now the tide is turning 
	I can see that I was blind 
	It's so easy for a girl like you to lie 
	Tell me why 
	What goes on in your heart? 

	I used to think of no on else 
	But you were just the same 
	You didn't even think of me 
	As someone with a name 
	Did you mean to break my heart and watch me die 
	Tell me why 

	What goes on in your heart? 
	What goes on in your mind? 
	You are tearing me apart 
	When you treat me so unkind 
	What goes on in your mind 
	In your mind 
	In your mind 

Girl

(Lennon & McCartney)

	Is there anybody gone to listen to my story 
	All about the girl who came to stay? 
	She's the kind of girl you want so much 
	It makes you sorry 
	Still, you don't regret a single day. 
	Ah girl! Girl! 
  

	When I think of all the times I've tried to leave her 
	She will turn to me and start to cry 
	And she promises the earth to me 
	And I believe her. 
	After all this times I don't know why. 
	Ah, girl! Girl! 

	She's the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there, 
	You feel a fool. 
	When you say she's looking good, she acts as if it's understood. 
	She's cool, cool, cool, cool, Girl! Girl! 

	Was she told when she was young the pain 
	Would lead to pleasure? 
	Did she understand it when they said 
	That a man must break his back to earn 
	His day of leisure? 
	Will she still believe it when he's dead? 
	Ah girl! Girl! Girl! 

I'm Looking Through You

(Lennon & McCartney)

	I'm looking through you, where did you go 
	I thought I knew you, what did I know 
	You don't look different, but you have changed 
	I'm looking through you, you're not the same 

	Your lips are moving, I cannot hear 
	Your voice is soothing, but the words aren't clear 
	You don't sound differnt, I've learned the game. 
	I'm looking through you, you're not the same 

	Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right? 
	Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight 

	You're thinking of me, the same old way 
	You were above me, but not today 
	The only difference is you're down there 
	I'm looking through you, and you're nowhere

	Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right? 
	Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight 

	I'm looking through you, where did you go 
	I thought I knew you, what did I know 
	You don't look different, but you have changed 
	I'm looking through you, you're not the same 
  
	Yeh, I tell you you've changed

In My Life

(Lennon & McCartney)

	There are places I'll remember 
	All my life though some have changed 
	Some forever not for better 
	Some have gone and some remain 
	All these places have their moments 
	With lovers and friends I still can recall 
	Some are dead and some are living 
	In my life I've loved them all 

	But of all these friends and lovers 
	There is no one compares with you 
	And these mem'ries lose their meaning 
	When I think of love as something new 
	Though I know I'll never lose affection 
	For people and things that went before 
	I know I'll often stop and think about them 
	In my life I love you more 

	Though I know I'll never lose affection 
	For people and things that went before 
	I know I'll often stop and think about them 
	In my life I love you more 
	In my life I love you more 

Wait

(Lennon & McCartney)

	It's been a long time 
	Now I'm coming back home 
	I've been away now 
	Oh how I've been alone 
	Wait till I come back to your side 
	We'll forget the tears we've cried 

	But if your heart breaks 
	Don't wait, turn me away 
	And if your heart's strong 
	Hold on, I won't delay 
	Wait till I come back to your side 
	We'll forget the tears we've cried 

	I feel as though 
	You ought to know 
	That I've been good 
	As good as I can be 
	And if you do 
	I'll trust in you 
	And know that you 
	Will wait for me 

	It's been a long time 
	Now I'm coming back home 
	I've been away now 
	Oh how I've been alone 
	Wait till I come back to your side 
	We'll forget the tears we've cried 

	I feel as though 
	You ought to know 
	That I've been good 
	As good as I can be 
	And if you do 
	I'll trust in you 
	And know that you 
	Will wait for me 

	It's been a long time 
	Now I'm coming back home 
	I've been away now 
	Oh how I've been alone 
	Wait till I come back to your side 
	We'll forget the tears we've cried 

	It's been a long time 
	Now I'm coming back home 
	I've been away now 
	Oh, how I've been alone 

If I Needed Somone

(Harrison)

	If I needed someone to love 
	You're the one that I'd be thinking of 
	If I needed someone 

	If I had some more time to spend 
	That I guess I'd be with you my friend 
	If I needed someone 
	Had you come some other day 
	Then it might not have been like this 
	But you see now I'm too much in love 

	Carve your number on my wall 
	And maybe you will get a call from me 
	If I needed someone 
	Ah, ah, ah, ah 

	If I had some more time to spend 
	That I guess I'd be with you my friend 
	If I needed someone 
	Had you come some other day 
	Then it might not have been like this 
	But you see now I'm too much in love 

	Carve your number on my wall 
	And maybe you will get a call from me 
	If I needed someone 
	Ah, ah 

Run For Your Life

(Lennon & McCartney)

	Well I'd rather see you dead, little girl 
	Than to be with another man 
	You better keep your head, little girl 
	Of I won't know where I am 

	You better run for your life if you can, little girl 
	Hide your head in the sand little girl 
	Catch you with another man 
	That's the end'a little girl 

	Well I know that I'm a wicked guy 
	And I was born with a jealous mind 
	And I can't spend my whole life 
	Trying just to make you toe the line 

	You better run for your life if you can, little girl 
	Hide your head in the sand little girl 
	Catch you with another man 
	That's the end'a little girl 

	Let this be a sermon 
	I mean everything I've said 
	Baby, I'm determined 
	And I'd rather see you dead 

	You better run for your life if you can, little girl 
	Hide your head in the sand little girl 
	Catch you with another man 
	That's the end'a little girl 

	I'd rather see you dead, little girl 
	Than to be with another man 
	You better keep your head, little girl 
	Of I won't know where I am 

	You better run for your life if you can, little girl 
	Hide your head in the sand little girl 
	Catch you with another man 
	That's the end'a little girl 
	Na, na, na 
	Na, na, na 
	Na, na, na 
	Na, na, na
