[Verse 1: George Harrison]
Been beat up and battered around
Been sent up, and I've been shot down
You're the best thing that I've ever found
Handle me with care

[Verse 2: George Harrison]
Reputation's changeable
Situation's tolerable
But, baby, You're adorable
Handle Me with Care

[Pre-Chorus: Roy Orbison]
I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care?

[Chorus: Bob Dylan and Tom Petty]
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body 
next to mine, 
and dream on

[Verse 3: George Harrison]
I've been fobbed off, and I've been fooled
I've been robbed and ridiculed
In daycare centers and night schools
Handle me with care

[Verse 4: George Harrison]
Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed, commercialized
Handle me with care

[Pre-Chorus: Roy Orbison]
I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care?

[Chorus: Jeff Lynne and Roy Orbison]
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on

[Verse 5: George Harrison]
I've been uptight and it made a mess
But I'll clean it up myself, I guess
Oh, the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care

CONTRIBUTE






















[Verse 1: Tom Petty]
She was there at the bar, she heard my guitar
She was long and tall, she was the queen of them all

[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night

[Verse 2: Tom Petty]
She was dark and discreet, she was light on her feet
We went up to her room and she lowered the boom

[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night

[Verse 3: Roy Orbison]
Down below they danced and sang in the street
While up above the walls were steaming with heat

[Chorus]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
[Verse 4: Tom Petty]
I was feeling no pain, feeling good in my brain
I looked in her eyes, they were full of surprise

[Chorus]
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night

[Verse 5: Roy Orbison]
I asked her to marry me she smiled and pulled out a knife
The party's just beginning she said, "Your money or your life?"

[Chorus]
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night

[Verse 6: Tom Petty]
Now I'm back at the bar, she went a little too far
She done me wrong, all I got is this song

[Outro]
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night...

[Chorus: George Harrison]
Well it's all right, 
riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right,
 if you live the life you please
Well it's all right,
  doing the best you can
Well it's all right, 
as long as you lend a hand

[Verse 1: Tom Petty]
You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring
Waiting for someone to tell you everything
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring
Maybe a diamond ring

[Chorus: Jeff Lynne]
Well it's all right,
 even if they say you're wrong
Well it's all right,
 sometimes you gotta be strong
Well it's all right, 
as long as you got somewhere to lay
Well it's all right, 
every day is Judgement Day

[Verse 2: Tom Petty]
Maybe somewhere down the road away
You'll think of me, and wonder where I am these days
Maybe somewhere down the road when 
somebody plays
Purple haze

[Chorus: Roy Orbison]
Well it's all right, 
even when push comes to shove
Well it's all right, 
if you got someone to love
Well it's all right, 
everything'll work out fine
Well it's all right, 
we're going to the end of the line

[Verse 3: Tom Petty]
Don't have to be ashamed of the car I drive
I'm just glad to be here, happy to be alive
It don't matter if you're by my side
I'm satisfied

[Chorus: George Harrison, Jeff Lynne & George Harrison]
Well it's all right, even if you're old and grey
Well it's all right, you still got something to say
Well it's all right, remember to live and let live
Well it's all right, the best you can do is forgive
Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, even if the sun don't shine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line




[Chorus: George Harrison]
Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, doing the best you can
Well it's all right, as long as you lend a hand

[Verse 1: Tom Petty]
You can sit around and wait for the phone to ring
Waiting for someone to tell you everything
Sit around and wonder what tomorrow will bring
Maybe a diamond ring

[Chorus: Jeff Lynne]
Well it's all right, even if they say you're wrong
Well it's all right, sometimes you gotta be strong
Well it's all right, as long as you got somewhere to lay
Well it's all right, everyday is Judgement Day

[Verse 2: Tom Petty]
Maybe somewhere down the road away
You'll think of me, and wonder where I am these days
Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays
Purple haze
[Chorus: Roy Orbison]
Well it's all right, even when push comes to shove
Well it's all right, if you got someone to love
Well it's all right, everything'll work out fine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line

[Verse 3: Tom Petty]
Don't have to be ashamed of the car I drive
I'm just glad to be here, happy to be alive
It don't matter if you're by my side
I'm satisfied

[Chorus: George Harrison, Jeff Lynne & George Harrison]
Well it's all right, even if you're old and grey
Well it's all right, you still got something to say
Well it's all right, remember to live and let live
Well it's all right, the best you can do is forgive
Well it's all right, riding around in the breeze
Well it's all right, if you live the life you please
Well it's all right, even if the sun don't shine
Well it's all right, we're going to the end of the line



I don't want nothing
Nothing but you
And I'm waiting
Looking for a new blue moon

I'm so tired waiting
Waiting for you
And I'm waiting
Looking for a new blue moon

So many moons have come and gone
And none of them were blue
Too many times the sun came up, but
It came up without you, you, ya yoo hoo ooh

You won't call me
Call me lonely
And I'm waiting
Looking for a new blue moon

So many moons have come and gone
And none of them were blue
Too many times the sun come up, but
It came up without you, you, you, you yahoo
Someday when you want me
Someday you may see
I was waiting
Looking for a new blue moon
I was waiting
Looking for a new blue moon
Blue moon


You took my breath away
I want it back again
Look at the mess I'm in
I don't know what to say

I don't know how to feel
You don't care anyway
All I can do is wait
You took my breath away

You took this song of mine
And changed the middle bit
It used to sound alright
But now the words don't fit

It's getting hard to rhyme
Impossible to play
I've tried it many times
You took my breath away

One day when the sun is shining
There will be a silver lining
You knocked my headlights out
So turn them on again
I can't see where I'm going
I can't tell where I've been

I don't know how to feel
This hasn't been my day
Seems like I've lost a wheel
You took my breath away

You took my breath away
You took my breath away
You took my breath away
