You Know What To Do (demo)

(demo)

When I see you

I just don't know what to say

I like to be with you

Every hour of the day

So if you want me

Just like I need you

You know what to do



I watched you walking by

And you looked alone

I hope that you won't mind

If I walk you back home

And if you want me

Just like I need you

You know what to do



Just call on me

When you're lonely

I'll keep my love

For you only

I'll call on you

If I'm lonely too



Understand I'll stay

With you every day

Make you love me more

In every way

So if you want me

Just like I want you

You know what to do



Just call on me

When you're lonely

I'll keep my love

For you only

I'll call on you

If I'm lonely too



Understand I'll stay

With you every day

Make you love me more

In every way

So if you want me

Just like I need you

You know what to do

Soldier Of Love (live at the BBC)

Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)

And surrender to me (Sha la, la)

Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)

And love me peacefully (Sha la, la) yeah (Sha la la)

Use your arms for loving me

Baby, that's the way it's gotta be (Ooh)



There ain't no reason for you to declare

War on the one that loves you so

So forget the other boys because my love is real

Come off your battlefield



Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)

And love me peacefully (Sha la, la)

Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)

And love me tenderly (Sha la, la) yeah (Sha la la)

Use your arms to hold me tight

Baby, I don't wanna fight no more (Ooh)



The weapons you're using are hurtin' me bad

But someday you're gonna see

That my love for you baby, is the truest you've ever had

A Soldier of Love, that's hard to be



Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)

And love me peacefully (Sha la, la)

Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)

And surrender to me (Sha la, la) yeah (Sha la la)

Use your arms to squeeze and please cos I'm the one that loves you so

(Yeah, soldier of love) Baby, lay down your arms

(Yeah, soldier of love) Baby, lay down your arms

(Yeah, yeah) (fade out)

Don't Pass Me By

I listen for your footsteps

Coming up the drive

Listen for your footsteps

But they don't arrive

Waiting for your knock dear

On my old front door

I don't hear it

Does it mean you don't love me anymore?



I hear the clock a'ticking

On the mantel shelf

See the hands a'moving

But I'm by myself

I wonder where you are tonight

And why I'm by myself

I don't see you

Does it mean you don't love me anymore?



Don't pass me by don't make me cry don't make me blue

Cos you know darling I love only you

You'll never know it hurt me so

How I hate to see you go

Don't pass me by don't make me cry



I'm sorry that I doubted you

I was so unfair

You were in a car crash

And you lost your hair

You said you would be late

About an hour or two

I said that's alright I'm waiting here

Just waiting to hear from you



Don't pass me by don't make me cry don't make me blue

Cos you know darling I love only you

You'll never know it hurt me so

How I hate to see you go

Don't pass me by don't make me cry



[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8... mm]



Don't pass me by don't make me cry don't make me blue

Cos you know darling I love only you

You'll never know it hurt me so

How I hate to see you go

Don't pass me by don't make me cry

Dig It

Like a rolling stone

Like a rolling stone

Ah like a rolling stone

Like the FBI and the CIA

And the BBC, BB King

And Doris Day

Matt Busby

Dig it, dig it, dig it

Dig it, dig it, dig it, dig it, dig it, dig it, dig it, dig it



[That was "Can You Dig It" by Georgie Wood.

And now we'd like to do "Hark The Angels Come".]

I've Got A Feeling (naked version)

I've got a feeling, a feeling deep inside

Oh yeah, oh yeah

I've got a feeling, a feeling I can't hide

No no, no, oh no, no no

Yeah yeah I've got a feeling



Oh please believe me, I'd hate to miss the train

Oh yeah, oh yeah

And if you leave me, I won't be late again

No no, oh no, oh no

Yeah yeah I've got a feeling yeah

All these years I've been wandering around

Wondering how come nobody told me

All that I was looking for was somebody

Who looked like you



I've got a feeling, that keeps me on my toes

Oh yeah, oh yeah

I've got a feeling, I think that everybody knows

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Yeah yeah I've got a feeling



Everybody had a hard year

Everybody had a good time

Everybody had a wet dream

Everybody saw the sunshine

Oh yeah (Oh yeah), oh yeah, oh yeah (Yeah)

Everybody had a good year

Everybody let their hair down

Everybody pulled their socks up (Yeah)

Everybody put their foot down

Oh yeah

The Honeymoon Song (live at the BBC)

I never knew that a day like today lay before us

I've got the sun in my heart and my heart's in the sun

The skys are as bright as your eyes the horizon is open

Love is the ceiling feeling are reeling free as the air



Forever on and forever

Forever on side by side

Whoever knew that we too could be free as we fancied

Fancy is free but are we who are bound to each other by love

To each other by love



Whoever knew that we too could be free as we fancied

Fancy is free but we are who are bound to each other by love

To each other by love

To each other by love

To each other by love

It's All Too Much

[All too much!]



It's all too much

It's all too much



When I look into your eyes, your love is there for me

And the more I go inside, the more there is to see



It's all too much for me to take

The love that's shining all around you

Everywhere, it's what you make

For us to take, it's all too much



Floating down the stream of time from life to life with me

Makes no difference where you are or where you'd like to be



It's all too much for me to take

The love that's shining all around here

All the world is birthday cake

So take a piece but not too much



Sail me on a silver sun, where I know that I'm free

Show me that I'm everywhere, and get me home for tea



It's all to much for me to see

The love that's shining all around here

The more I learn, the less I know

But what I do is all too much



It's all too much for me to take

The love that's shining all around you

Everywhere, it's what you make

For us to take, it's all too much



It's too much

Ah, it's too much



With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue

With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue



You're too much, ah

We all get too much



Too much, too much, too much

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a, too much a, too much a

Too much a



Much, much, much, much, much

Much, much, much, much, much

Much, much, much, much, much

Much, much, much, much, much

Much, much, much, much, much

Only A Northern Song (takes 3 and 12)

(take 3)

If you're listening to this song

You may think the chords are going wrong

But they're not

I just wrote it like that



When you're listening late at night

You may feel the words are not quite right

But they are

I just wrote them myself



And it doesn't really matter what chords I play

What words I say or time of day it is

As it's only a Northern song



It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear

Or how I fare or if my hair is brown

When it's only a Northern song



(take 12)

If you think the harmony

Is a little dark and out of key

Then you're correct

Cos I sing it myself

Don't Let Me Down

Don't let me down, don't let me down

Don't let me down, don't let me down



Nobody ever loved me like she does

Oh, she does, yeah, she does

And if somebody loved me like she do me

Oh, she do me, yes, she does



Don't let me down, don't let me down

Don't let me down, don't let me down



I'm in love for the first time

Don't you know it's gonna last

It's a love that lasts forever

It's a love that had no past (Seeking past)



Don't let me down, don't let me down

Don't let me down, don't let me down



And from the first time that she really done me

Oh, she done me, she done me good

I guess nobody ever really done me

Oh, she done me, she done me good



Don't let me down, hey don't let me down

Heeeee, don't let me down



Don't let me down

Don't let me down, don't let me let down

Can you dig it? Don't let me down

I Me Mine (naked version)

All through the day, I me mine

I me mine, I me mine

All through the night, I me mine

I me mine, I me mine

Now they're frightened of leaving it

Everyone's weaving it

Coming on strong all the time

All through the day I me mine



I I me me mine, I I me me mine

I I me me mine, I I me me mine



All I can hear, I me mine

I me mine, I me mine

Even those tears, I me mine

I me mine, I me mine

No-one's frightened of playing it

Everyone's saying it

Flowing more freely than wine

All through the day I me mine



I I me me mine, I I me me mine

I I me me mine, I I me me mine



All I can hear, I me mine

I me mine, I me mine

Even those tears, I me mine

I me mine, I me mine

No-one's frightened of playing it

Everyone's saying it

Flowing more freely than wine

All through your life I me mine

When I'm Sixty-Four

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?

Ho!
