Where [F] do they all come [Am] from?

All the lonely people,

Where [F] do they all be-[Am]-long?

[Am] Father McKenzie,

Writing the words of a sermon that no one will [F] hear.

No one comes near.

Darning his socks in the night when there’s nobody [F] there.

What does he care?

[Am] All the lonely people,


All the lonely people,

Where [F] do they all be-[Am]-long?



[Am] Eleanor Rigby,

Died in the church and was buried along with her [F] name.

Octopus’s Garden Richard Starkey

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=De1LCQvbqV4

INTRO:

[C] I’d like to be, [Am] under the sea,

In an [F] octopus’s garden in the [G7] shade.


In an [F] octopus’s garden in the [G7] shade.

[C] He’d let us in, [Am] knows where we’ve been.

In his [F] octopus’s garden in the [G7] shade.

[Am] I’d ask my friends, to come and see

[F] An octopus’s [G] gar-[G] den [G] with [G] me


In an [F] octopus’s [G7] garden, in the [C] shade.

[C] We would be warm, [Am] below the storm,

In our [F] little hideaway beneath the [G7] waves.

[C] Resting our head, [Am] on the seabed,

In an [F] octopus’s garden, near a [G7] cave.

[Am] We would sing, and dance around...

[F] Because we know, we [G] can’t [G] be [G] found. [G]


In an [F] octopus’s [G7] garden in the [C] shade.

[C] We would shout, [Am] and swim about,

The [F] coral that lies beneath the [G7] waves.

[C] Oh, what joy, for [Am] every girl and boy.

[F] Knowing they’re happy and they’re [G7] safe.

[Am] We would be, so happy you and me

[F] No one there to tell us what to [G] do [G] [G] [G]


In an [F] octopus’s [G7] garden with [Am] you,

In an [F] octopus’s [G7] garden with [Am] you,

In an [F] octopus’s [G7] garden with [C] you. [C] [G7] [C]

Rock and Roll Music (A) Chuck Berry

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_xRT_MV72U

[NC] Just let me hear some of that…

[A] Rock and roll music,

Any old way you choose it.

It's got a [D] back beat, you can't lose it,

[A] Any old time you use it.

It's [E7] gotta be rock roll music,

If you wanna dance with [A] me.

[E7] If you wanna dance with [A] me.

I've got no kick against [E7] modern jazz,

Unless they try to play it [A] too darn fast.

And lose the beauty of the [D] melody,

Until they sound just like a [E7] symphony...

[NC] That's why I go for that,








I took my love on over [E7] 'cross the tracks,

So, she can hear my man [A] a-wailin’ sax.

I must admit they have a [D] rockin' band,

Man, they were blowin' like a [E7] hurricane.

[NC] Just let me hear some of that,





39




Way down South they had a [E7] jubilee,

Those Georgia folks they had a [A] jamboree.

They're drinkin' home brew from a [D] wooden cup,

The folks all dancin' got [E7] all shook up…

[NC] And started playin' that,








Don't care to hear 'em play a [E7] tango,

I'm in no mood to take a [A] mambo.

It's way too early for a [D] congo,

So, keep on rockin' that [E7] piano.

[NC] Just gimme some of that,








[E7] If you wanna dance with [A] me. [E7]↓ [A]↓
