   Tabbed by:PJVillanueva





   There were eight violins, four celli, a bass clarinet and three
   horns in this song. As ever, the string glissandos could never be 
   achieved with a guitar, not even using a slide, due to the guitar 
   fretting & the different tone and stringing of those instruments,
   but I think that a couple of guitars or even just one could get
   an interesting rendition of this song. 
   Don't miss the Mike Sammes Singers in the Coda, a vocal group with 
   eight men and eight wonen, who perform in unison the ho ho hoo he 
   he hee ha ha haa and some woooohs and strange things, besides that 
   ending choir after John's first Oompah oompah.

    



   I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
   See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.
   I'm crying.

   Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.
   Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday.
   Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus,
   Goo goo goo joob

   Mister City P'liceman sitting
   Pretty little p'licemen in a row.
   See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run.
   I'm crying, I'm crying.
   I'm crying, I'm crying.

   Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye.
   Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess,
   Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down.
   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus,
   Goo goo goo joob.

   Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun.
   If the sun don't come, you get a tan
   From standing in the English rain.
   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen,I am the walrus,
   Goo goo g'joob, goo goo g'joob.

   Expert textpert choking smokers,
   Don't you think the joker laughs at you?
   See how they smile like pigs in a sty, See how they sny.
   I'm crying.

   Semolina pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower.
   Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna.
   Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.
   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus,
   goo goo a'joob, g' goo goo g'joob, (goo goo goo joob 
   goo goo goo joob goo goo gooooooooooooo joooooooob)

    The final master was an editing of remixes 10 and 22. The voices
    heard on the Coda were supposedly fed live by John on Wednesday
    September, 29th, 1967, from a BBC radio broadcast, Shakespeare's 
    "The Tragedy Of King Lear", scheduled for 7:30 to 10:40 pm that 
    day, while they were performing remix 22. In the fragment, Edgar, 
    the older, legitimate son of Gloucester stabs Oswald, steward in 
    the house of Goneril, Lear's ruthless, oldest daughter: 
    
  
                 02:24
    Gloucester - Now, goo, sir [what are you?]

    Edgar      - A [most poor] man made tame to fortune's [blows]



                 03:46 
                 Aaaaaaaaaaahh!
               
                 Oooooh
    Oswald     - Thou have slain me! 
                 Villain, take my purse.

                 If thou ever [wilt thrive,] bury my body

                 And give the letters which thou findst about me
                 To Edmund, Earl of Gloucester. 
                 Seek him out upon the British party.
                 Oh, untimely death!         

    Edgar      - I know thee well, a serviceable villain,
                 as duteous to the vices of thy mistress
                 As badness would desire!

    Gloucester - What, is he dead?

    Edgar      - Sit you down, father, rest you.



    
    I think some voices might have been taken live from that broadcast, 
    but I suppose that anybody'll hear at least three different voices 
    embodying Oswald, so I think they might have used some from maybe a 
    couple of other shows or played some themselves.
