 All my little plans and schemes
 Am                           Gaug
 Lost like some forgotten dreams

Was waiting for you

Just like little girls and boys
Am                           Gaug
Playing with their little toys
 F                                Dm    G
Seems like all they really were doing
               C     F     C     F
Was waiting for love

 No need to be alone

   It’s real love, it’s real,  yes
     Am    F         G
It’s real love, it’s real

Exactly where my life will go

But in my heart I wanted more

Good work. This one actually sounds just like the recording on Anthology. One tip, instead of Fm6 I like to play Fm. They change isn't that noticeable but it's a bit different.

Which parts? Sounds spot on when I play along.

This sounds spot on with the beatles version, but doesn't sound quite right with John's original demo. Maybe they sped it up when they recorded over it. Also, I like to play it with a capo on the first and just transpose these chords 2 half steps up. Not a correction, just a personal preference.
