This song pumps the [[81/80|Gu (Meantone) comma]] very rapidly. Note the ^4 root movement from vD to G. Alternatively, a D root could be used.

This song switches between relative major and minor so smoothly, it's hard to say what key it's in. Here it's written out as major.

This song has an ascending 81/80 comma pump. While comma pumps are usually handled with pitch shifts, tonic drift works for this song. Tonic drift is easier to accept if it’s ascending, not descending. It only drifts up after the chorus, and this upward drift is arguably a nice touch. The Beatles changed key up a semitone at that point, and this is just a more subtle version of that.
