Good Night (Rehearsal and take 34)

Author: John Lennon; Lead vocal: Ringo Starr

(rehearsal)
[That sounds quite nice.

What?

It sounds nice starting like that anyway.

OK yeah!

Somebody should count in on there.

"1, 2, 3, 4, dream, sweet dreams."

Right! Off you go. You do the count in then?

That's it, the beginnings different now OK?

Yeah!

Ready!

How's it go? "Dream sweet dreams."

1,2,3,4.]

Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you

Now it's time to say good night
Good night, sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
Good night, sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you

Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night, sleep tight
Now the moon begins to shine
Good night, sleep tight

(crossfade into the orchestral part of the final master)

(take 34 for the orchestral part)
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
