PAUL & the beatles

 

 

 

Born a poor young country boy
Mother Nature’s son
All day long I’m sitting singing songs for everyone.

“Mother Nature´s son”

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOHN & the beatles

 

 

 

 

Turn off your mind relax and float down stream
It is not dying, it is not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void,
It is shining, it is shining.

“Tomorrow Never Knows“

 

 

 

 

 

 

PAUL solo

 

 

 

 

Put it there if it weighs a ton,
That’s what the father said to his younger son.
I don’t care if it weighs a ton,
As long as you and I are here, put it there

“Put it There”

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOHN solo

 

 

 

The dream is over
Yesterday
I was the dreamweaver
But now I’m reborn
I was the walrus
But now I’m John
And so, dear friends,
You’ll just have to carry on

“God”

 

 

 

 

 

 

PAUL & JOHN – on the Run

 

 

 

 

I read the news today, oh boy
4,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I’d love to turn you on

“A day in the Life”
