Junk (home demo) – The Beatles
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Paul McCartney
Recorded: 28 May, 1968 (Paul McCartney home demo)
Released on: The Beatles - “Anthology 3” (1996)
Tabbed by: maguri
Not sure whether any of the other Beatles contributed to this demo,
but it was still released on the last of the Beatles "Anthology" compilations
in 1996. Proper recordings of the song (one with vocals and an instrumental
version) can be found on Paul McCartney's first solo album "McCartney" (1970).

Lyrics of the finished version from "McCartney"
Motor cars, handlebars
Bicycles for two
Broken-hearted jubilee
Parachutes, army boots
Sleeping bags for two
Sentimental jamboree
"Buy, buy"
Says the sign in the shop window
"Why, why?"
Says the junk in the yard
Candlesticks, building bricks
Something old and new
Memories for you and me
"Buy, buy"
Says the sign in the shop window
"Why, why?"
Says the junk in the yard
