Old Brown Shoe

"Old Brown Shoe" is a song by The Beatles. It was written by George Harrison, and first released on the B-Side of The Ballad of John and Yoko on May 30, 1969.

Composition
According to George Harrison, "I started the chord sequences on the piano, which I don't really play, and then began writing ideas for the words from various opposites... Again, it's the duality of things – yes no, up down, left right, right wrong, etc." This idea can also be seen an earlier Beatles single, Hello, Goodbye.
