notes:
They led him to the stage and sat him in a chair
He looked out at the crowd, a cheer went through the air
A sad look on his face, and yet he soldiered on
A part of him was there, a part of him was gone
A part of him was gone.
I know his brain is damaged beyond repair
He overcame his fears so I don't care
Brian Wilson's back and doing alright, doing alright
Singing for his fans - a beautiful sight, a beautiful
sight
Murray Wilson used to beat him
And destroyed young Brian's ear
His mixes were all monophonic
'Cause thats all he can hear
Brian Wilson's back and doing alright, doing alright
Singing for his fans - a beautiful sight, a beautiful
sight
He was fired from the Beach Boys
And it did not slow them down
They play at county fairs and carnivals
Coming soon to your town
He lost his sense of pitch, he cannot hit a note
Not even when he sings a classic that he wrote
He lost his sanity so many years ago
Yet by some miracle, he's giving us a show
He's giving us a show
He may not be the man that he used to be
But Brians Wilson's shell still satisfies me
Brian Wilson's back and doing alright, doing alright
Singing for his fans - a beautiful sight, a beautiful
sight
An extraordinary man
