I Want to Tell You
The Beatles
[Verse 1] I want to tell you My head is filled with things to say When you're here All those words, they seem to slip away [Verse 2] When I get near you The games begin to drag me down It's all right I'll make you maybe next time around [Bridge 1] But if I seem to act unkind It's only me, it's not my mind That is confusing things [Verse 3] I want to tell you I feel hung up but I don't know why I don't mind I could wait forever, I've got time [Bridge 2] Sometimes I wish I knew you well Then I could speak my mind and tell you Maybe you'd understand [Verse 3] I want to tell you I feel hung up but I don't know why I don't mind I could wait forever, I've got time [Outro] I've got time I've got time

Tomorrow Never Knows

Within You Without You
The Beatles
[Verse 1] We were talking about the space between us all And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late when they pass away [Verse 2] We were talking about the love we all could share When we find it to try our best to hold it there with our love With our love, we could save the world, if they only knew [Chorus 1] Try to realise it's all within yourself No one else can make you change And to see you're really only very small And life flows on within you and without you [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] We were talking about the love that's gone so cold And the people who gain the world and lose their soul They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them? [Chorus 2] When you've seen beyond yourself then you may find Peace of mind is waiting there And the time will come when you see we're all one And life flows on within you and without you [Sounds of Laughter]

[Bridge 2] Every summer we can rent a cottage In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear We shall scrimp and save Grandchildren on your knee Vera, Chuck, and Dave [Verse 3] Send me a postcard, drop me a line Stating point of view Indicate precisely what you mean to say Yours sincerely, wasting away Give me your answer, fill in a form Mine for evermore Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four?
