[Intro]
Give me, uh, plenty of that guitar

[Verse 1]
For I've been travelling on a boat and a plane
In a car, on a bike, with a bus and a train
Travelling there, travelling here
Everywhere in every gear

[Chorus 1]
But, oh Lord, we pay the price
With the spin of the wheel, with the roll of the dice
Ah yeah, you pay your fare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

[Verse 2]
And I've been travelling through the dirt and the grime
From the past to the future, through the space and the time
Travelling deep beneath the waves
In watery grottoes and mountainous caves

[Chorus 2]
But, oh Lord, we've got to fight
With the thoughts in the head, with the dark and the light
No use to stop and stare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

[Bridge]
You may not know where you came from
May not know who you are
May not have even wondered
How you got this far

[Verse 3]
I've been travelling on a wing and a prayer
By the skin of my teeth, by the breadth of a hair
Travelling where the four winds blow
With the sun on my face, in the ice and the snow

[Chorus 3]
But, ooh wee, it's a game
Sometimes you're cool, sometimes you're lame
Ah yeah, it's somewhere
If you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

[Instrumental Verse]

[Chorus 1]
But, oh Lord, we pay the price
With the spin of the wheel, with the roll of the dice
Ah yeah, you pay your fare
If you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

[Verse 4]
I keep travelling around the bend
There was no beginning, there is no end
It wasn't born and never dies
There are no edges, there is no sides

[Chorus 4]
Oh yeah, you just don't win
It's so far out, the way out is in
Bow to God and call him Sir
But if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

[Outro]
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there
If you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

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.”
