While My guitar Gently Weeps Acoustic version

[Pat]

there is some differnt lyrics in the acoustic version of this song i found which could be a clue

I look from the weeds,
at the PLAY you are STAGING,
while my guitar gently weeps

i don't know how rare this version is so I thought id make a post about it to those who havent heard it.

This was brought up before and someone, I forget who, noted that these lyrics were improvised on spot when George forgot his written ones.

[Piggies]

Actually I think it's

I look from the "WINGS"
at the PLAY you are STAGING,
while my guitar gently weeps

As I'm sitting here
Doing nothing but aging...

Of course standing in the "wings" is a common theatre term.
Pretty slick of George to sneak that one in . ;D

That version also appears on the Prince's Trust Concert from the mid-80s.
