"Wait" 
Also from Rubber Soul, “Wait” is a true Lennon/McCartney collaboration. Both sing in tight signature harmony, Lennon having written the song’s verses and chorus and McCartney the bridge. The minor/major chord shift from verse to chorus really makes the latter stand out, and it hits even harder with Ringo shifting from a choppier rhythm to a straight-ahead rock beat, anchored by a steady tambourine jingle.
