THE BEATLES
"Julia (Two Rehearsals)"

[Intro: John Lennon, Engineer]
Is it better standing up you think
It's very hard to sing this you know (Yes a very hard song, John)
Yeah, maybe I should strum it the first time

[Refrain 1]
Half of what I say is meaningless
But I say it just to reach you, Ju-

Julia, Julia
Ocean child calls me
So I sing a song of love for Julia

Seashell eyes
Windy smile, calls me
So I sing a song of love for Ju-

[John Lennon]
Do you think it's better like that? I'm singing it better
But I can't play it better
I'll just try picking it again but slightly faster

[Refrain 1]
Half of what I say is meaningless
But I say it just to reach you, Ju-

Julia, Julia
Ocean child, calls me
So I sing the song of love for Julia

Seashell eyes
Windy smile, calls me
So I sing a song of love for Julia

[Bridge:]
Her hair of floating sky is shimmering
Glimmering, in the sun

Julia, Julia
Morning moon, touch me
So I sing a song of love for Julia

[Refrain 2]
When I cannot sing my heart
I can only speak my mind, Julia

Silent cloud
Sleeping sand, touch me
So I sing the song of love for Julia

Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm, hmm hmm
So I sing a song of love for Julia

[Outro: John Lennon]
Yes?
Yeah, it is better
