  Submitted by Phil Ogden (MASP99@AOL.COM).  This is my impression of George

  Harrison's acoustical version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps found on The

  Beatles Anthology 3 CD.  I hope you enjoy it.

  Words

  

  Intro

  

  I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping

  While my guitar gently weeps

  I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

  Still my guitar gently weeps

  

  I don't know why nobody told you

  How to unfold your love

  I don't know how someone controlled you

  They bought and sold you

  

  I look at the world and I notice it's turning

  While my guitar gently weeps

  With every mistake we must surely be learning

  Still my guitar gently weeps

  

  I don't know how you were diverted

  You were perverted too

  I don't know how you were inverted

  No one alerted you

  

  I look from the wings at the play you are staging

  While my guitar gently weeps

  As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging

  Still my guitar gently weeps

  

  Ending
