[Verse 1]
Looking back upon my youth
The time I always knew the truth

[Chorus]
I don't want to do it
I don’t want to say goodbye

[Verse 2]
Go back in the yard and play
If I could only have another day

[Chorus]
I don't want to do it
I don't want to make you cry

[Bridge]
To sit beside the track up on the hill
And try to concentrate
All in all the places that I want to be
You know I told you that I couldn’t wait

[Refrain]
Come back into my arms again
This love of ours, you know it has no end

[Chorus]
I don't want to do it
I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to do it
I don't want to say goodbye

[Bridge]
To sit beside the track up on the hill
And try to concentrate
On all the places that I want to go
You know I showed you that I couldn't wait

[Refrain]
Come back into my arms again
This love of ours, you know it has no end

[Chorus]
I don't want to do it
I don't want to say goodbye
I don’t want to do it
I don’t want to say goodbye

George Harrison

If George Harrison were merely remembered for his involvement in The Beatles, his legacy would be solidified as one of rock’s greatest names. Along with staging the world’s first benefit concert where major artists performed together for humanitarian relief, introducing pop culture to classical Indian music and gaining three #1 singles as a solo artist, he was also a film producer and an avid gardener.

In 1957, he met a young Paul McCartney on a bus they both took to school. McCartney then introduced him to John Lennon to audition for his skiffle group, the Quarrymen. Lennon originally rejected Harrison as he thought he was too young to be the band, having just turned 15. Harrison eventually impressed Lennon with his guitar skills and was accepted as a member of the group.

During his time with The Beatles, Harrison was the lead guitarist, one of the singers, and contributed many songs such as “Taxman,” “Within You Without You,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Here Comes the Sun” and “Something.”
