[Intro]
Sat on the corner
It's a pretty certain sign
Those wedding bells are breaking up that old gang of mine

[Chorus]
I get that lonesome feeling
When I hear those church bells chime
Those wedding bells are breaking up that old gang of mine

[Refrain]
Well, there goes Jack and there goes Jim
Walking down lover’s lane
Now and then, we meet again
They don't seem the same

[Chorus]
I get that lonesome feeling
When I hear those church bells chime
Those wedding bells are breaking up that old gang of mine
Here we go

[Refrain]
Well, there goes Jack and there goes Jim
Walking down lover's lane
How now and then, we’d meet again
But they don't seem the same

[Chorus]
Now I get that lonesome feeling
When I hear those church bells chime
Those wedding bells are breaking up that old gang of mine

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.”
