Steve's Beatles Page - Songs

Yes It Is

Lennon/McCartney

Lyrics:
If you wear red tonight
Remember what I said tonight
For red is color that my baby wore
and what's more it's true
Yes it is

Scarlet were clothes she wore
Everybody know I'm sure
I would remember all the things planned
understand it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride
Yes it is, Oh, yes it is, yeh

Please don't wear red tonight
This is what I said tonight
For red is the color that will make me blue
in spite of you it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride
Yes it is, Oh, yes it is, yeh

Please don't wear red tonight
This is what I said tonight
For red is the color that will make me blue
in spite of you it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is, it's true

What Goes On? Anomalies

George (?) makes the harmony sound false.
* NEW * Another one I'm going to retract on thinking about it. This is an intentional chord, and sounds out of place simply because it is unusual

0:12
Small drop out in the word "I" (as in "what I said")
