[Verse 1]
Everyone has choice
When to or not to raise their voices
It's you that decides
Which way you will turn
While feeling that our love’s not your concern
It's you that decides

[Bridge]
No one around you
Will carry the blame for you
No one around you
Will love you today and throw it all away

[Verse 2]
Tomorrow when you rise
Another day for you to realise me
Or send me down again
As the days stand up on end
You've got me wondering how I lost your friendship
But I see it in your eyes

[Bridge]
Though I’m beside you
I can't carry the blame for you
I may decide to
Get out with your blessing
Where I'll carry on guessing

[Verse 3]
How high will you leap?
Will you make enough for you to reap it?
Only you'll arrive
At your own made end
With no one, but yourself to be offended
It's you that decides

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.”
