 The song was the opening track of the compilation album 1967 – 1970 , released in 1973 , and also appears on the Imagine soundtrack issued in 1988 . In 1996 , three previously unreleased versions of the song were included on the Anthology 2 album : Lennon 's original home demo , an altered version of the first studio take , and the complete take seven , of which only the first minute was heard in the master version . In 2006 , a newly mixed version of the song was included on the album Love . This version builds from an acoustic demo ( which was run at the actual recorded speed ) and incorporates elements of " Hello , Goodbye " , " In My Life " , " Sgt. Pepper 's Lonely Hearts Club Band " , " Penny Lane " and " Piggies " .
