  [Film Spoken introduction:]

  Yellow Submarine... And we would march till
  three in the day to see them gather there. From
  Land of Goats to Jonah Green we'd step in duty
  trail to see his yellow submarine. We love it

  In the town where I was born
  Lived a man who sailed to sea
  And he told us of his life
  In the land of submarines

  So we sailed up to the sun
  Till we found the sea of green
  And we lived beneath the waves
  In our yellow submarine

  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

  And our friends are all aboard
  Many more of them live next door
  And the band begins to play

  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

  As we live a life of ease
  Everyone of us has all we need
  Sky of blue and sea of green
  In our yellow submarine.

  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
  We all live in a yellow submarine,
  Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

  The instruments were speeded down a half step, so If you want
  to play along while listening to the recording you must tune
  your guitar a half step down.

  John used the wrong chords on these last three measures, leading
  to the chorus in a somewhat forced manner, although masked by the
  raucous, recorded marching brass interlude in G.

  "ON BOARD" SOUND EFFECTS FRAGMENT:
  I suppose no one could be quite sure about what John and Paul
  are meant to be saying here (probably it's some meaningles
  kind of sea chatter). I'd venture to say it might be something
  like:


  "Full speed ahead, Mr Boatswain,
   Full speed ahead!"
  "Full speed itteereet is, Sgt!"
  "Cut the cable! Drop the cable!"
  "Aye, sir, fire!"
  "Keep it! Keep it!"

  Everyone of us has all we need
  Sky of blue and sea of green
  In our yellow submarine.
