Notes:
1. Minor but important chord changes added.
2. Key change occurs between early and later versions.
3. "Writing a few years later in his book The Beatles Forever, Nicholas Schaffner 
viewed the “Dylanesque numbers” as “somewhat overshadowed” by those with the 
obvious Phil Spector production qualities, but identified them as being “far more 
intimate, both musically and lyrically, than the rest of the album”.[38]"
