I've got it... I know what the chord is! Steady now man.. wait for it...it's the George Harrison chord...get it ..like the Freddie King chord or Jimi Hendrix...oh sod it..
Well, maybe ONE of the opening chords was an F with G on the 1st Str. but there also is a "4th" note sounding in the chord as well as a piano bash so technically George is not correct. I think you come closer to the chord (played by at least 3 people incl G Martin on piano) by barring whole neck at 3rd fret with 1st finger; 3rd finger on 5th fret A strg and pinky on 5th fret G strg. Whack that simple chord cleanly and it's close - especially with a 12 string. It may be called a G minor 7, sus 4
I can't believe you're saying that the guy that wrote the bloody song is wrong. he's not wrong, he's 100% correct. the guitar plays just that, as he said, F with a G on the 1st string. Anything else Piano etc is aside from the 12 string. FFS
@@andybetts1484 Wrong. Maybe. if you watched Anthology or read books there are a lot of things George admits he doesn't remember that a typical fan remembers. I found "the chord" on my Rick 360-12 and it wasn't just an F with a G note on top. More like a G minor sus 4 which sounds "correct". He's confusing what he played for the outro which is the F with G on 1st string alternating with a straight F; obvious if you have an EAR. If you really want to get messed up - look up Randy Bachman's take on it where he allegedly has the tapes @ Abbey with Gilles and they break it down - and they are all over the map, too. (the tapes aren't totally isolated separate tracks) 🎸
What a f**king beautiful man he was...❤️

He knew he was lying. Great mystery solved though.
