Cheer DownGeorge Harrison

Songwriter: Tom Petty George Harrison

Producer: Jeff Lynne George Harrison

I can see by your grin
That you're trembling within
It's all over town, cheer down

And the smile on your face
Is sometimes out of place
Don't mind, no frowns, cheer down

If your hair should fall
If your shares should crash
You'll get by even without getting a rash

There's no tears to be shed
I'm going to love you instead
I want you around, cheer down

When your teeth drop out
You'll get by even without taking a bite
If your dog should be dead

I'm going to love you instead
The world loves a clown, cheer down
I want you around, cheer down

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.”
