[Em6]: 022020
[Em7]: 022030
[C/G]Ah, look at all the lonely [Em]people!
[C/G]Ah, look at all the lonely [Em]people!
[Em]Eleanor Rigby,
Picks up the rice in a church where a wedding has been,
Lives in a dream.
[C]Waits at the window,
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door,
Who is it f[Em]or?
[Em7]All the lonely [Em6]people,
Where [C]do they all come [Em]from?
[Em7]All the lonely [Em6]people,
Where [C]do they all bel[Em]ong?
Father McKenzie,
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear,
No one comes near.
Look at him working,
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there,
What does he care?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
Eleanor Rigby,
Died in the church and was buried along with her name,
Nobody came.
Father McKenzie,
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave,
No one was saved.
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
I'm Only Sleeping
(i think this should be played with a capo on 4... otherwise start with
Bm and it will do fine- top line are the chord forms, bottom line is in
the right key [at least the recording I have])
Bm Em D G D F#7
D#m G#m F# B F# A#7
When I wake up early in the morning/lift my head I'm still yawning
(you get the idea...)
D#m G#m F# B F# B G#m
When I'm in the middle of a dream/Stay in bed Float upstream
F# G#m A#m G#m
Please don't wake me/no don't shake me/leave me where I am
F#maj7 G#m (little bass thing G#/B/D#/B somewhere)
I'm only sleeping...
(bridge part, after verses 2 and 3 I believe...)
C#m7 D#7 G#m
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window, taking my time
2. Everybody seems to think I'm lazy/I don't mind/I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed/'til they find/There's no need
Please don't spoil my day/I'm miles away/and after all
I'm only sleeping...
3. Lying there and staring at the ceiling/Waiting for/a sleepy feeling
Please don't spoil my day/I'm miles away/And after all
I'm only sleeping...

Tomorrow Never Knows
C
Turn off your mind relax and float downstream
It is not dying It is not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void
It is shining It is shining
That you may see the meaning of within
It is being It is being
That love is all and love is everyone
It is knowing It is knowing
That ignorance and haste may mourn the dead
It is believing It is believing
But listen to the colour of your dream
It is not living It is not living
Or play the game of existence to the end
Of the beginning Of the beginning Of the beginning
One chord - that was easy. The trick is to get a steady strum on that C chord and keep it
throughout the whole song. (Lyrics here are taken from the Anthology 2 version)
