First, I'd like to say that I finally changed my strings. Fuck yeah.

So I've been learning a lot of covers lately to try and play around my town for extra cash to help with tour/bills, and anyways, I decided to learn way too many Beatles' songs. This song in particular was my one of my favorites when I was a little kid and I felt like posting a cover of it. So badabing badaboom.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Desmond has a barrow in the market place
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says to Molly "girl I like your face"
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on

Desmond takes a trolley to the jewellers stores
Buys a twenty carat golden ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on, yeah

In a couple of years they have built
A home sweet home
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones


Happy ever after in the market place
Desmond lets the children lend a hand
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face
And in the evening she still sings it with the band

Yes, ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on
Hey, ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on

In a couple of years they have built
A home sweet home
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones


Yeah, happy ever after in the market place
Molly lets the children lend a hand
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face
And in the evening she's a singer with the band

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on
Yeah, ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on bra
La-la how the life goes on

And if you want some fun
Take ob-la-di ob-la-da

The Beatles - Ob - La - Di, Ob - La - Da Cover


I accidentally left out a measure in the beginning/the lead isn't perfect. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore 
Before you take a swing 
I wonder what are we fighting for 
When I say out loud 
I want to get out of this 
I wonder is there anything 
I'm going to miss 
I wonder how it's going to be 
When you don't know me 
How's it going to be 
When you're sure I'm not there 
How's it going to be 
When there's no one there to talk to 
Between you and me 
Cause I don't care 
How's it going to be, How's it going to be 
Where we used to laugh 
There's a shouting match 
Sharp as a thumbnail scratch 
A silence I can't ignore 
Like the hammock by the 
Doorway we spent time in, swings empty 
Don't see lightning like last fall 
When it was always about to hit me 
I wonder how's it going to be 
When it goes down 
How's it going to be 
When you're not around 
How's it going to be 
When you found out there was nothing 
Between you and me 
Cause I don't care 
How's it going to be 
And how's it going to be 
When you don't know me anymore 
And how's it going to be 
Want to get myself back in again 
The soft dive of oblivion 
I want to taste the salt of your skin 
The soft dive of oblivion oblivion 
How's it going to be 
When you don't know me anymore 
How's it going to be, How's it going to be 
How's it going to be

How's It Gonna Be (Third Eye Blind Cover)

I've been trying to get better with harmonies and I love this song. I didn't do the lead because I played/sang it in one take and only felt like adding the harmonies afterwards. And yes. I am fully aware that my guitar isn't perfectly in tune.

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I wanna mean it from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The gold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

[x10]
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on
