Imagine (John Lennon song) was recently featured during the 2021 Tokyo Olympics opening ceremony. Imagine was composed and sung by John Lennon in 1971, and was the best-selling single of his solo career. Lennon's lyrics of Imagine encourage listeners to imagine a world of peace, without materialism, without borders separating nations and even without religion: imagine there's no heaven, imagine there is no country, etc. Several poems from Yoko Ono's 1964 book Grapefruit inspired Lennon to write the lyrics for Imagine, and in 2017 she received co-writing credit for the song.
I hope you'll enjoy my ORIGINAL (almost) barbershop arrangement and cover of this timeless classic. It's my humble tribute for the 50th anniversary of Lennon's masterpiece. Sheet music abd audio learning tracks for this four-part acappella arrangement are available on my website below.

--- LYRICS
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us, only sky
Imagine all the people
Livin' for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
