Song Sheet No. 12 – Singalong Lyrics

Sweet Caroline

Where it began I can’t begin to knowing
But then I know it’s growing strong
Was in the spring and spring became a summer
Who’d have believed you’d come along

Hands
Touching hands, reaching out
Touching me, touching you

Sweet Caroline good times never seemed so good
I’ve been inclined To believe they never would
But now I

Look at the night and it don’t seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two and when I hurt
Hurting runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holding you?

One
Touching one, reaching out
Touching me, touching you

Sweet Caroline good times never seemed so good
I’ve been inclined to believe they never would
Oh no no

Short Instrumental

Sweet Caroline good times never seemed so good
I’ve been inclined to believe they never would
Sweet Caroline


Amarillo

Sha la la lala lalala, sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala

Short Instrumental

When the day is dawning on a Texas Sunday morning
How I long to be there with Marie who’s waiting for me there
Every lonely city ha ha ha ha ha
Where I hang my hat ha ha ha ha ha
Ain’t as half as pretty as where my baby’s at

Is this the way to Amarillo, every night I’ve been hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo, I’ve been weeping like a willow
Crying over Amarillo, and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la lala lalala, sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala, and Marie who waits for me

There’s a church bell ringing, hear the song of joy that it’s singing
For the sweet Maria and the guy who’s coming to see her
Just beyond the highway ha ha ha ha ha,
There’s an open plain ha ha ha ha ha,
And it keeps me going through the wind and rain

Is this the way to Amarillo, every night I’ve been hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo, and sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo, I’ve been weeping like a willow
Crying over Amarillo, and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la lala lalala, sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala, and Marie who waits for me

I’m a Believer

I thought love was only true in fairytales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me, that’s the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Then I saw her face, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I’m in love, I’m a believer, I couldn’t leave her if I tried

I thought love was more or less a givin’ thing
But the more I gave the less I got
What’s the use in trying? All you get is pain
When I needed sunshine I got rain

Then I saw her face, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I’m in love, I’m a believer, I couldn’t leave her if I tried

Instrumental

Love was out to get me, now that’s the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Oh then I saw her face, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I’m in love, I’m a believer, I couldn’t leave her if I tried

Yes I saw her face, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Said I’m a believer, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…. Ad Lib


Daydream Believer

Oh, I could hide ‘neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings.
The six o’clock alarm would never ring.
But it rings and I rise,
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes.
The shaving razor’s cold and it stings.

Cheer up, sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a home-coming queen.

You once thought of me
As a white knight on a steed.
Now you know how happy I can be.
Oh, and our good times starts and end
Without dollar one to spend.
But how much, baby, do we really need.

Cheer up, sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.

Hi, Ho Silver Lining

You’re everywhere and nowhere baby, that’s where you’re at
Going down a bumpy hillside, in your hippy hat
Flying across the country, and getting fat
Saying everything is groovy, when your tires are flat

And it’s hi ho silver lining, anywhere you go now baby
I see your sun is shining
But I won’t make a fuss, though it’s obvious

Flies are in your pea soup baby, they’re waving at me
Anything you want is yours now, only nothing’s for free
Lies are gonna get you someday, just wait and see
So open up your beach umbrella, while you’re watching TV

And it’s hi ho silver lining, anywhere you go now baby
I see your sun is shining
But I won’t make a fuss, though it’s obvious

Instrumental

And it’s hi ho silver lining, anywhere you go now baby
I see your sun is shining
But I won’t make a fuss, though it’s obvious
