Barclay James Harvest John Lennon`s Guitar Lyrics

John Lennon`s Guitar Lyrics

(John Lees)

 back in the autumn of seventy
 on the night shift at abbey road
 four young men were recording a song named `galadriel'
 for an album they'd call "once again"
 the producer was norman smith
 who'd engineered with the beatles and john
 whose guitar was to be instrumental that day
 when i came to play

 i remember it well, as if it was yesterday
 the day that i played
 john lennon's guitar
 i remember it well, as if it was yesterday
 the day that i played
 john lennon's guitar

 back in the autumn of seventy
 as i played on my borrowed guitar
 how could i know the beatles would split the next day
 my heroes break up and go their own way

 now autumns they come and they go
 but my friends and my memories remain
 and my heroes, well some of them fell from the stage
 but their light still remains

 i remember it well, as if it was yesterday
 the day that i played
 john lennon's guitar
 i remember it well, as if it was yesterday
 the day that i played
 john lennon's guitar

 i remember the day
 i remember the day
 i remember the day
 i remember the day
 the day that i played
 john lennon's guitar
 i remember the day, as if it was yesterday
 and i know that the memories will never fade
 i remember the day, as if it was yesterday
 the day that i played
 john lennon's guitar
