Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts
 Club Band
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: McCartney


It was twenty years ago today
Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play
They've been going in and out of style
But they're guaranteed to raise a smile
So may I introduce to you
The act you've known for all these years
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

We're Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
We hope you will enjoy the show
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Sit back and let the evening go
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
It's wonderful to be here
It's certainly a thrill
You're such a lovely audience
We'd like to take you home with us
We'd love to take you home

I don't really want to stop the show
But I thought that you might like to know
That the singer's going to sing a song
And he wants you all to sing along
So let me introduce to you
The one and only Billy Shears
And Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
A Little Help From My Friends
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: Starr


What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key

I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
Going to try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(Are you sad because you're on your own)

No I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
Going to try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Get high with a little help from my friends
Oh I'm going to try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody,
I just need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Going to try with a little help from my friends
Oh I get high with a little help from my friends

Yes I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends
Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: Lennon
 

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds 
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ah

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmellow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high
Newpaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you're gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds 
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ah

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstyle
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ah
Lucy in the sky with diamonds 
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ah
Lucy in the sky with diamonds 
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Getting Better
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: McCartney 


It's getting better all the time
I used to get mad at my school (well I can't complain)
The teachers who taught me weren't cool
 (well I can't complain)
You're holding me down, (ah) turning me round (ah)
Filling me up with your rules

I've got to admit it's getting better (better)
A little better all the time (it can't get more worse) 
I have to admit it's getting better (better)
It's getting better since you've been mine

Me used to be a angry young man
Me hiding me head in the sand
You gave me the word
I finally heard
I'm doing the best that I can

I've got to admit it's getting better (better)
A little better all the time (it can't get more worse) 
I have to admit it's getting better (better)
It's getting better since you've been mine

Getting so much better all the time
It's getting better all the time (better better better)
It's getting better all the time (better better better)

I used to be cruel to my woman
I beat her and kept her apart from the things that
 she loved
Man I was mean but I'm changing my scene
And I'm doing the best that I can

I admit it's getting better (better)
A little better all the time (it can't get more worse) 
Yes I admit it's getting better (better)
It's getting better since you've been mine

Getting so much better all the time
It's getting better all the time (better better better)
It's getting better all the time (better better better)
Getting so much better all the time
Fixing A Hole
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: McCartney 


I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where will it go
I'm filling the cracks that ran through the door
And kept my mind from wandering
Where will it go

And it really doesn't matter if 
I'm wrong I'm right
Where I belong I'm right
Where I belong

See the people standing there who disagree and
 never win
And wonder why they don't get in my door
I'm painting a room in the colorful way
And when my mind is wandering
There I will go

And it really doesn't matter if
I'm wrong I'm right
Where I belong I'm right
Where I belong

Silly people run around they worry me
And never ask me why they don't get past my door
I'm taking the time for a number of things
That weren't important yesterday
And I still go

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where it will go
Where it will go

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
And stops my mind from wandering
Where it will go
Where it will go
She's Leaving Home
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: McCartney
 

Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching her
 hankerchief
Quietly turning the backdoor key
Stepping outside she is free

She (we gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (sacraficed most of our lives)
Home (We gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home after living alone (bye, bye)
For so many years

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy our baby's gone
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly
How could she do this to me?

She (we never though of ourselves)
Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)
Home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone (bye, bye)
For so many years

Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade

She (what did we do that was wrong)
Is having (we didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied (bye, bye)
For so many years
She's leaving home (bye, bye)
Being For The Benefit Of
 Mr. Kite!
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: Lennon
 

For the benefit of Mr. Kite
There will be a show tonight on trampoline
The Hendersons will all be there
Late of Pablo Fanques Fair-what a scene
Over men and horses hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead of real fire!
In this way Mr. K. will challenge the world!

The celebrated Mr. K.
Performs his feat on Saturday at Bishopsgate
The Hendersons will dance and sing
As Mr. Kite flys through the ring don't be late
Messrs. K and H. assure the public
Their production will be second to none
And of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz!

The band begins at ten to six
When Mr. K. performs his tricks without a sound
And Mr. H. will demonstrate
Ten summersets he'll undertake on solid ground
Having been some days in preparation
A splendid time is guaranteed for all
And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill
Within You Without You
(Harrison)  Lead vocal: Harrison


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

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

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

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?

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
When I'm Sixty-Four
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: McCartney
 

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you

I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

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 & Dave

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
Lovely Rita
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: McCartney


Lovely Rita meter maid
Lovely Rita meter maid

Lovely Rita meter maid
Nothing can come between us
When it gets dark I tow your heart away
Standing by a parking meter
When I caught a glimpse of Rita
Filling in a ticket in her little white book
In a cap she looked much older
And the bag across her shoulder
Made her look a little like a military man

Lovely Rita meter maid
May I inquire discreetly
When are you free
To take some tea with me

Took her out and tried to win her
Had a laugh and over dinner
Told her I would really like to see her again
Got the bill and Rita paid it
Took her home I nearly made it
Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two

Oh, lovely Rita meter maid
Where would I be without you
Give us a wink and make me think of you
Lovely meter maid
Rita meter maid
Oh lovely Rita meter maid
Good Morning, Good Morning
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: Lennon

Good morning, good morning 
Good morning, good morning, good morning

Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in
Nothing to say but what a day how's your boy been
Nothing to do it's up to you
I've got nothing to say but it's O.K.
Good morning, good morning, good morning

Going to work don't want to go feeling low down
Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town
Everybody knows there's nothing doing
Everything is closed it's like a ruin
Everyone you see is half asleep
And you're on your own you're in the street

After a while you start to smile now you feel cool
Then you decide to take a walk by the old school
Nothing has changed it's still the same
I've got nothing to say but it's O.K.
Good morning, good morning, good morning

People running round it's five o'clock
Everywhere in town is getting dark
Everyone you see is full of life
It's time for tea and meet the wife

Somebody needs to know the time, glad that I'm here
Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you're in
 gear
Go to a show you hope she goes
I've got nothing to say but it's O.K.
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good
Good morning, good morning, good

A Day In The Life
(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: Lennon and McCartney


I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph

He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords

I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
but I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on

Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand 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
