George Harrison Picture
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.

Awaiting On You All (Alan Freeman Show 1974) Lyrics

George Harrison

You don't need no love, man
You don't need no bedpan
You don't need a heartened message to mess with your end

If you open up your heart
If you know what I mean
And you waited here so long
Well, that's a way for you to get me

Live, share in the wings of the Lord and you'll be free
The Lord lights the way and you know that you'll soon see
Share in the wings of the Lord and you'll be free
The Lord lights the way with all the glory to see

You don't need no passport
You don't need no visa
You don't need a daisy chain or anything before you can see Jesus

If you open up your heart
You can 'see' it right there
But if it opens too wide
Then you'll find your own hell

Live, share in the wings of the Lord and you'll be free
The Lord lights the way and you know that you'll soon see
Share in the wings of the Lord and you'll be free
The Lord lights the way with all the glory to see

You don't need no church house
You don't need no temple
You don't need no rosary beads or books if you wanna go there

If you open up your heart
If you know what I mean
Then you'll soon long to find that out that we're all free

Oh we're on bible number fifty one said the general order
And a stronger piece of english is the only thing that's followed by the
quota
The Lord lights the way with all the glory to see
But share in the wings of the Lord and you'll be free
