PAUL AND GEORGE 1969: (arguing during the recording of the song 'Two Of Us')

PAUL: 'It's complicated now.
We can get it simpler, and then complicate it where it needs complications.'

GEORGE: 'It's not complicated.'

PAUL: 'This one is like, shall we play guitars through 'Hey Jude' …well, I don't think we should.'

GEORGE: 'Ok well I don't mind… I'll play, you know, whatever you want me to play, or I wont play at all if you don't want to me to play.
Whatever it is that will please you… I'll do it!'

JOHN: 'I wish that we could start hearing the tapes now.
Like – Do it, and then hear what it is.
Is it just 'cuz we don't feel like it, or is it 'Does the guitar sound alright, really.''

JOHN 1969: (ad-libbing during the recording sessions) ''Two of us wearing postcards.''

Two of us riding nowhere
Spending someone's
Hard earned pay
You and me Sunday driving
Not arriving
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

Two of us sending postcards
Writing letters
On my wall
You and me burning matches
Lifting latches
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

[We're going home, you better believe it. Goodbye.]
