"Strawberry Fields Forever" Lyrics

by John Lennon and Paul McCartney

Original Manuscript (1966)

There's no one I [ ] in my tree
I mean it's either to high or to low
That is, you can't you know
tune in - but it's alright
I mean it's not to bad

I always no - sometimes think
it's hard
But you know I know when
it's a bean
I think I know I mean - er -
Yes, but it's all wrong
That is I think I disagree

As Released by the Beatles (1967)

Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.

Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone
But it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me.

Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.

No-one, I think, is in my tree
I mean, it must be high or low
That is you can't, you know, tune in
But it's alright
That is, I think it's not too bad.

Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.

Always, no, sometimes, think it's me
But, you know, I know when it's a dream
I think I know, I mean, er, yes
But it's all wrong
That is, I think I disagree.

Let me take you down
'cos I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever.

Strawberry fields forever.
Strawberry fields forever.

... Cranberry sauce...
