Recording
[edit]The song was recorded completely at McCartney's home in St. John's Wood. McCartney said in 1970: "An instrumental recorded completely at home. Made up as I went along – first a sequence of chords, then a melody on top."[4][failed verification]
McCartney later said of the song, "Originally it was two pieces, but they ran into each other by accident and became one."[5]
Personnel
