(36)

Watch out now, take care Beware of falling swingers Dropping all around you The pain that often mingles In your fingertips Beware of darkness

Watch out now, take care Beware of the thoughts that linger Winding up inside your head The hopelessness around you In the dead of night

Beware of sadness It can hit you It can hurt you Make you sore and what is more That is not what you are here for

Watch out now, take care Beware of soft shoe shufflers Dancing down the sidewalks As each unconscious sufferer Wanders aimlessly Beware of maya

Watch out now, take care Beware of greedy leaders They take you where you should not go While weeping atlas cedars They just want to grow, grow and grow Beware of darkness (beware of darkness)

All Things Must Pass is a triple album by George Harrison recorded and released after the break-up of The Beatles. The first triple album by a solo artist, the original vinyl release featured two records of rock songs, while the third, entitled "Apple Jam" was composed of informal jams led by Harrison with musician friends and other famous musicians.

Received as a masterpiece upon its 1970 unveiling, All Things Must Pass is widely considered to be one of the best albums made by a Beatle as a solo artist. It is certified 6x Platinum by the RIAA, making it the best selling album by a solo Beatle.

I think it shows just how much material Harrison had stored up that he couldn't get out there because of the "Lennon / McCartney" writing front of the Beatles. I never owned this album. Not sure why. This is great to hear. Thanks!

@MusikMagik Thanks! It's a keeper. I think many people share your feelings about the dynamics of the writing.

@dark-horse I couldn't agree more. Thanks for the comments!
