All I'd intended to do was write a post about how I listened to Beatles for Sale again a few days ago and discovered that after the hand-claps in the bridge, there are a few finger-snaps during the third verse. They're sort of loosely structured which makes me think that they were just improvised while recording the hand-claps. That's all I intended to do, but then - in verifying that I did actually hear finger-snaps - I ended up learning the piano part and then I referenced The Beatles Complete Chord Songbook for the rest of the rhythm guitar chords. I don't have the rhythm right for the "I saw the light" part in the first verse; it wasn't until I got to the second verse that I realized you have to strum upwards during those parts to stay in time.
