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

I put all that scenes together, synchronizing the song with their lips and instruments as I could.

Beatles- Free As A Bird
I've tried to mix the song "Free As A Bird", so it sounds a little bit like an orignal Beatles take. I have used Johns original demo on intro and the most of the main part of the song. And then I have taken a piece from the "I'll Be There" version from Anthology, the count in part. Finally i used the Paul, George & Ringo re-make of the song, and I hope you'll enjoy.
