Harrison: Hi, Ringo Starr: Hi, George Lennon: Hi, Ringo. Happy New Year! Starr: Happy New Year! Harrison: Hello? Hare Krishna? Harrison: We're on the day shift now Starr: Yeah George Martin: It's got to be there (CHATTER) Harrison: ...as Judy? George Martin: ...yeah, she said she's very well Harrison: See, the thing that I feel about, that the motion of it is Eh, very, you know, bandy Starr: Yeah Harrison: It's like that- ...Can last all morning A cloudburst doesn't last all day Harrison: You know it's like a... it gets to something to be quicker Lennon: Yeah, yeah Harrison: Besides, you know what I mean? Lennon: It's just. Yeah I definitely do. ... And then Ringo's spot on Harrison: Ah, you know, and if there's people joining in You'd know, I'd appreciate it too. If you feel... The only thing... Yeah Lennon: Soon as I got, forget about I started- Harrison: Yeah, like, the only thing The main bit is like, I thought if some voices went All things must pass All things must pass away Sunset doesn't last all evening (doesn't last all...) The wind can blow those clouds away (The wind can blow those clouds away) And after all this, my love is up and must be leaving It's not always gonna be this gray All things must pass All things must pass away All things must pass None of life's strings can last So, I must be on my way and face another day And darkness only stays the nighttime In the morning it will fade away Night and day is good at arriving at the right time Though it's not always gonna be this gray All things must pass All things must pass away Oooooh McCartney: Have a break after that, all things- Harrison: That's the idea McCartney: All things must pass away What was that? What was that? What was that? What was that? Harrison: Macrobiotic pills are good at arriving at the right time (MCCARTNEY WHISTLES) It's not always- McCartney: One more time McCartney: Yeah Lennon: Should have "my mind can blow those clouds away" It looks like Harrison: Yeah, okay Lennon: A little bit of psychedelia in it, you know
