"I'll Be Back" is a song by The Beatles which closes their UK album A Hard Day's Night. (In the US the song appeared on The Beatles '65 album.) The song is credited jointly to John Lennon and Paul McCartney although Lennon was the primary songwriter, in addition to singing lead vocals on the record.
The song was originally written in 3/4 time. The Anthology 1 CD includes an early take of the song in waltz form, before John Lennon fumbles over the words in the bridge, complaining on the take that "it's too hard to sing." A subsequent take, also included on Anthology, is performed in the 4/4 time used in the final take.
