This is my introduction to all 3 songs, and I hope you like it! This is the song, “A Rush to the Shore”, and it's to the tune to the song “What a Wonderful World”. It’s a-I've always liked that song, What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. To me, it has a smooth sound. An easy relaxing flow.

And here it is! *Intro to What a Wonderful World* *Brian sings* I see houses They look so nice they look like they Have a fresh coat of paint And I think to myself What a wonderful sight I see colors of pinwheels Blue, yellow and green wheels on a car Going round and round And I think to myself What a wonderful sight The Thanksgiving decorations So pretty on the ceiling So pretty are the faces Of people going by I see friends shaking hands Saying, "How do you do?" They're really saying "How do you like my face?" Thank you For getting my iPad back With a little help from my friends And I think to myself What a wonderful sight Yes, I think to myself What a wonderful sight *Outro music plays* Brian: This song is let it be and it is one of my all-time favorite Beatles songs.

All walking along the shore. *Intro for Let it Be plays* *Brian sings* When I think about tomorrow it could be better than yesterday Whisper words of wisdom, let it be With help from my mom and dad coming to graduation Jim and Marilee making me a best man Memory, memory, memory, memory As it comes to my mind, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be And today will only be getting better, And that’s the way people agree Whisper words of wisdom, let it be Though sometimes I feel mad There is still a chance that I’ll bounce back Turn frustration into happiness Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be Whisper words of wisdom, let it be &nb(continued)
