Dark Horse
(George Harrison)

You thought that you knew where I was and when
Baby, it looks like they've been foolin' you again
You thought that you'd got me all steaked out
Baby, it looks like I've been breaking out

I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Who's looking for the source
I'm a dark horse

You thought that you'd got me in your grip
Baby, it looks like you was not so smart
And I became too slippery for you
Let me tell you that was nothing new

I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I picked up my first spoon
I've been a cool jerk
Who's looking for the source
I'm a dark horse

I thought that you knew it all along
Until you started getting me not right
Seems as if you heard a little late
I warned you when we both was at the starting gate

I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Who's looking for his birds
I'm a dark horse

I'm a dark horse
I'm running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Who's cooking at the source
I'm a dark horse

Ding Dong, Ding Dong
(George Harrison)

Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the false, ring in the true
Ring out the old, ring in the new

Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the false, ring in the true
Ring out the old, ring in the new

Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong
Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong

Yesterday today was tomorrow
And tomorrow today will be yesterday - oh

So ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the false, ring in the true
Ring out the old, ring in the new

You
(George Harrison)

I, I love, love and I, and I love you
Oh you, you, yeah you and you, you, love, love
And you, yes you, you love me
Yeah you, you, yeah you

And when I'm holding you, what a feeling
Seems so good to be true
That I'm telling you all
That I must be dreaming

And I, and I, I love you, oh you, oh you, yeah you

And when I'm holding you, what a feeling
Seems so good to be true
That I'm telling you all
That I must be dreaming

Now I, oh I, I love, love and I, yeah I, I love you, I love you
Oh you, you, oh you
Oh, you know that I love you, oh oh oh
Oh, you know that I love you, I love you, I, I said I love you

This Song
(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 me

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 the song came to me
Quite unknowingly
This song could be you, could be

This riff ain't trying 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 is no point to this song

from Thirty Three And 1/3 (1976)

Crackerbox Palace
(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 to 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-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

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring such joy to Crackerbox Palace
No matter where you roam
Know our love is true

Some times are good, some times are bad
It's all a part of life
And standing in between them
All I met a Mr. 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

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring such joy to Crackerbox Palace
No matter where you roam
Know our love is true

from Thirty Three And 1/3 (1976)

Blow Away
(George Harrison)

Day turned black, sky ripped apart
Rained for a year 'til it dampened my heart
Cracks and leaks, the floorboards caught rot
About to go down, I had almost forgot

All I got to do is to, to love you
All I got to be is be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow away, blow away, blow away

All I got to do is to, to love you
All I got to be is be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow away, blow away, blow away

Sky cleared up, day turned to bright
Closing both eyes, now the head filled with light
Hard to remember the state I was in
Instant amnesia, Yang to the Yin

All I got to do is to, to love you
All I got to be is be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow away, blow away, blow away ....

Wind blew in, cloud was dispersed
Rainbows appearing, the pressures were burst
Breezes are singin', now feeling good
The moment had passed like I knew that it should

All I got to do is to love you
All I got to be is be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow away, blow away, blow away ....

from George Harrison (1979)

All Those Years Ago
(George Harrison)

I'm shouting all about love
While they treated you like a dog
And you were the one who had made it so clear
All those years ago

I'm talking all about how to give
They don't act with much honesty
But you point the way to the truth when you say
All you need is love

Living with good and bad
I always looked up to you
Now we're left cold and sad
By someone the devil's best friend
Someone who offended all

We're living in a bad dream
They've forgotten all about mankind
And you were the one they backed up to the wall
All those years ago
You were the one who imagined it all
All those years ago

All those years ago - all those years ago

Deep in the darkest night
I send out a prayer to you
Now in the world of light
Where the spirit free of the lies
All else that we despised

They've forgotten all about God
He's the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was so weird
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago

All those years ago - all those years ago ....

from Somewhere In England (1981)

Got My Mind Set On You
(Rudy Clark)

I got my mind set on you, I got my mind set on you
I got my mind set on you, I got my mind set on you

But it's gonna take money, a whole lotta spending money
It's gonna take plenty of money to do it right, child
It's gonna take time, a whole lotta precious time
It's gonna take patience and time to do it, to do it
To do it, to do it, to do it, to do it right, child

I got my mind set on you, I got my mind set on you
I got my mind set on you, I got my mind set on you

And this time I know it's real, the feeling that I feel
I know if I put my mind to it, I know that I really can do it
I got my mind set on you, set on you
I got my mind set on you, set on you

But it's gonna take money, a whole lotta spending money
It's gonna take plenty of money to do it right, child
It's gonna take time, a whole lotta precious time
It's gonna take patience and time to do it, to do it
To do it, to do it, to do it, to do it right, child

I got my mind set on you, I got my mind set on you
I got my mind set on you, I got my mind set on you

And this time I know it's real, the feeling that I feel
I know if I put my mind to it, I know that I really can do it
But it's gonna take money, a whole lotta spending money ....

Set on you, set on you, set on you, set on you
Set on you, set on you, set on you, set on you
Set on you, set on you, set on you, set on you

from Cloud Nine (1987)

When We Was Fab
(George Harrison/Jeff Lynne)

Back then long time ago when grass was green
Woke up in a daze
Arrived like strangers in the night
Fab - doo-doo-doo-doo - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - back when income tax was all we had

Caresses fleeced you in the morning light
Casualties at dawn, and we did it all
Fab - doo-doo-doo-doo - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - you're my world, you are my only love

And while you're in this world
The fuzz gonna come and claim you
But you mo better wise
When the buzz gonna come and take you away
Take you away, take you away

The microscopes that magnified the tears
Studied warts and all
Still the life flowed on and on

Fab - gear - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - but it's all over now, Baby Blue
Doo-doo-doo - fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - like this pullover you sent to me
Fab - doo-doo-doo - gear - and you really got a hold on me
Fab - doo-doo-doo - gear - long time ago when we was fab
