[A] And [G] for what we came here [A] for, [Em] this is love.
[Bm] [Em]
[E] Dad actually came back in 1987 from when he got the last one of these.
And I never told you this, but I broke it.
And I glued the [Am] bit back in, but [B] no one noticed.
[G#] [G] He made [Em] a great
[N] well, actually Mick made a great speech in 87,
where he referred to the Beatles as the four-headed monster,
when they were all inducted.
And he told me lots of great stories, my dad, about that night.
I'd just like to say thanks to all of his mates,
who he'd love to see, [E] all the guys for [F#m] coming and playing,
and [N] to the Hall of Fame for having him in again.
And, yeah, to everyone who's ever liked his music.
Good on you.
Cheers.
Oh,
[A] here I go again.
I could talk about George, you know, forever, but I won't.
[G] There was a quote by the Indian poet Tagore that [Em] George read to me one day.
He said, Blessed is he whose fame does not outshine his truth.
[F#] [C#] And here we are in the Hall of Fame.
But the inductees are not chosen because of their fame,
but because they express their truth through their music.
George said that he tried [B] to write songs that would still [E] mean something years from now.
And I think it's safe to say [F] that in spite of his immense fame,
his [N] truth will never be outshined or forgotten.
Good.
[C#] If he were here, you know, he'd get a kick out of tonight.
He'd be wanting to see everybody and party.
[N] But there probably would be a lot of people that he would thank.
You know, [Em] if you think of the span of his entire career,
there would just be so many people who are in this room tonight that he may want to mention.
But I'm going to mention one that I'm sure of,
and it's the person in this room that George knew the longest in his life,
that he met behind the air raid shelter when he was sneaking off to have his ciggy in school,
and someone who looked after him and all of them
[B] from the time they [C#] were 13 to, for George, the end of his life.
[G] And that's the mysterious Neil [N] Aspinall.
Because, thank you, Neil, for holding it together for all these years,
because really the whole phenomenon might not have happened or stayed together as long as it did without him.
You know, he helped us, he's helped his family, and George loved him dearly,
and many of you as well.
So, thank you very much, and let's let George's music speak for itself.
