A Taste Of Honey
The Beatles
Written by Bobby Scott and Ric Marlow; released on "Please Please Me" album

A great one, the first song that the Beatles played (as I know) which is 
both in 3/4 and 4/4 time. And just listen to the F# Major chord on the end, 
I think it's wonderful. I think this inspired the ending of "And I Love Her"

3/4 time
