Beatles songs, Golden SlumbersGolden Slumbers(Paul McCartney – John Lennon and Paul McCartney)Albums in which the song is present1969 - Abbey RoadGEORGE 1969: 'Another very melodic tune of Paul's which is also quite nice.'PAUL 1969: 'I was just playing the piano in Liverpool at my dad's house, and my sister Ruth's piano book… she was learning piano… and 'Golden Slumbers and your old favorites' was up on the stand, you know – it was a little book with all those words in it. I was just flipping through it and I came to 'Golden Slumbers.' I can't read music so I didn't know the tune… I can't remember the old tune… so I just started playing 'my' tune to it. And then, I liked the words so I just kept that, you know, and then it fitted with another bit of song I had – which is the verse in between it. So I just made that into a song. It just happened 'cuz I was reading her book.' Once, there was a way to get back homeward Once, there was a way to get back home Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry And I will sing a lullabyGolden slumbers fill your eyes Smiles awake you when you rise Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry And I will sing a lullabyOnce, there was a way to get back homeward Once, there was a way to get back home Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry And I will sing a lullaby |
