“The Beatles is over but John, Paul, George and Ringo, God knows what relationship they’ll have in the future, I don’t know. You know, but they still, I still love those guys. Because they’ll always be those people that were that part of my life.”

August, 1980: John talks to Playboy writer David Sheff about ‘If I Fell’.
JOHN: That’s my first attempt at a – at a ballad. Proper. That was the precursor to ‘In My Life’. It’s the same chord sequence as ‘In My Life’, but – just about ‘round D, and B minor, and E minor, those kind of – things. And uh, it’s… semi-autobiographical, but not that conscious, you know. It’s really about – it’s not about Cyn, my first wife. If I fell in love with you, would you promise to be true… I used to like intros like they had on forties songs, you know, that have a long intro, and then the song would start. So that’s all mine. The harmony’s Paul’s. […] So that shows that I wrote sentimental love ballads – silly love songs, as you call them – way back when.
