[Verse 1]
Wah-wah
You've given me a wah-wah
And I'm thinking of you
All the things that we used to do
Wah-wah, wah-wah

[Verse 2]
Wah-wah
You made me such a big star
Being there at the right time
Cheaper than a dime
Wah-wah, you've given me your
Wah-wah, wah-wah

[Refrain]
Oh, you don't see me crying
Oh, you don't hear me sighing
No, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]
Wah-wah
I don't need no wah-wah
And I know how sweet life can be
If I keep myself free, wah-wah
I don't need no wah-wah

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
Oh, ooh
Oh, you don't see me crying
Baby, baby, baby, you don't hear me sighing
No, no, no, no, no

[Verse 3]
Wah-wah
Now I don't need no wah-wah
And I know how sweet life can be
If I keep myself free of wah-wah
I don't need no wah-wah
Oh, baby

[Instrumental Break]

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.”
