Personnel
According to Walter Everett, the line-up of musicians on the Beatles' recording was as follows:

Paul McCartney – double-tracked lead vocal, bass guitar
John Lennon – harmony vocal, acoustic guitar, harmonium
George Harrison – tambourine
Ringo Starr – drums

MacDonald said that some sources say the tambourine part was played by Harrison, but he thought that Starr had probably played it. Everett said Harrison played it, as it was recorded at the same time as the other instruments. Guesdon and Margotin also said Harrison played it.
