[Verse 1]
(Someplace else)
You got into my life
I don't know how you found me but you did
It stopped me heading someplace else
Took me a while to say, wish you belong to me
But now I'm saddened like I've never been
Regretting that we'll leave

[Pre-Chorus]
And for a while, you could comfort me
And hold me for some time
I need you now, to be beside me
While all my world is so untidy

[Chorus]
Loneliness
Empty faces
Wish I could leave them all
In someplace else
(Someplace else)

[Verse 2]
I hope you won't let go, maybe you'll let me know
That you'll be saddened like you've never been
Regretting that we'll leave

[Pre-Chorus]
And for a while, I could comfort you
And hold you in my mind
I need you now to be beside me
While all my world is sad and crazy

[Chorus]
Loneliness
Empty faces
Wish I could leave them all
In someplace else

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
And for a while, you could comfort me
And hold me for some time
I need you now, to be beside me
While all my world is so untidy

[Chorus]
Loneliness
Empty faces
Wish I could leave them all
In someplace else

Loneliness
Empty faces
Wish I could leave them all
In someplace else
(Someplace else)

[Outro]
I think I'm going to leave them all
In someplace else
(Someplace else)

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.”
