I got the album today and I had to post this because the only posting so far 
is CRD file, which I can never get to work. There is more to this song than 
you might think at first. Sorry, I don't know the lyrics yet.

And that little thing at the end is kind of confusing. Basically, the A 
chord is going haywire over the A-E-F#-G bass line, but in the background 
you can here the ukulele in the background somehow resolving to a D major 
chord, with an appropriate A to D finish.

Video Free As A Bird

The beatles - Free As A Bird (HD)
"Free as a Bird" is a song performed by The Beatles. The single was released on 4 December 1995, as part of the promotion for the release of The Beatles Anthology video documentary and the band's Anthology 1 compilation album. The song had been written and recorded as a demo by John Lennon in 1977. Paul mccartney asked Lennon's widow Yoko Ono for any unreleased material by Lennon, and "Free as a Bird" was chosen as being the song all three remaining Beatles could be involved in, as they could finish the arrangement and write extra lyrics. Jeff Lynne of Electric Light Orchestra was asked to co-produce the record as he had worked with George Harrison as part of The Traveling Wilburys. The music video for "Free as a Bird" was produced by Vincent Joliet and directed by Joe Pytka (Space Jam) and depicts, from the point of view of a bird in flight, many references to The Beatles songs, such as "Strawberry Fields Forever," "Penny Lane", "Paperback Writer", "A Day in the Life", "Eleanor Rigby" and "Helter Skelter". "Free as a Bird" later won the 1997 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, and was The Beatles' 34th Top 10 single in America. It was the first of two singles by the group to become a Top 40 hit in the 1990s [the other being "Real Love" in 1996].

The Beatles- Free as a bird
Lyrics- Free As A Bird Lennon/mccartney/Harrison/Starkey Free as a bird, it's the next best thing to be. Free as a bird. Home, home and dry, like a homing bird I'll fly as a bird on wings. Whatever happened to the life that we once knew? Can we really live without each other? Where did we lose the touch that seemed to mean so much? It always made me feel so... Free as a bird, like the next best thing to be. Free as a bird. Home, home and dry, like a homing bird I'll fly as a bird on wings. Whatever happened to the life that we once knew? Always made me feel so free. Free as a bird. It's the next best thing to be. Free as a bird. Free as a bird. Free as a bird.

The Beatles - Free as a bird (LIVE - 1994)
The Beatles together again in 1994, playing their new song: Free is a bird! Can you imagine they together again, playing in a concert? PS Of course that never happened. Actually, the song was recorded in 1994 (yes, after Lennon“s death), but this video is just a EDITION with scenes of clips from each other concerts. I put all that scenes together, synchronizing the song with their lips and instruments as I could.

The Beatles - Free as a Bird (1977/1995)
"Free as a Bird" is a song, single and video released by The Beatles in December 1995 as part of their "reunion" and promotion around the release of the video documentary Anthology and their Anthology 1 compilation album. Song was originally a piece of music that John Lennon composed, but never completed. The original Lennon recording was made circa 1977 in New York City. Yoko Ono gave a basic recording of the unfinished music to the remaining Beatles (Paul mccartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr) who reunited to finalise and record the completed song.
