Best known as lead guitarist of the The Beatles, George Harrisonalso achieved mainstream success as a solo artist. Smothered by the overwhelming songwriting egos of his Beatles band mates, John Lennonand Paul McCartney, Harrison never felt he was able to fully express himself as a member of the band. This along with his distinctive more eastern oriented style of music made sure that most of his vast backlog of songs was never released while he was with the Beatles. As tensions within the Beatles flared towards the end of the sixties, Harrison took the time to compile his solo material, from which he released his first album All Things Must Passin 1970. The album contains the two-time, number one hit, My Sweet Lord, and to this day remains the most commercially successful solo album by a Beatle.

Art of Dying Lyrics
George Harrison
Therell come a time when all of us must leave here
Then nothing sister mary can do
Will keep me here with you
As nothing in this life that Ive been trying
Could equal or surpass the art of dying
Do you believe me?
Therell come a time when all your hopes are fading
When things that seemed so very plain
Become an awful pain
Searching for the truth among the lying
And answered when youve learned the art of dying
But youre still with me
But if you want it
Then you must find it
But when you have it
Therell be no need for it
Therell come a time when most of us return here
Brought back by our desire to be
A perfect entity
Living through a million years of crying
Until youve realized the art of dying
Do you believe me?
