In respect to this song McCartney himself voiced it this way in an interview with Mark Lewisohn (1988: 10):
"... that middle eight was a very big departure for us. Say you're in C then go to A minor, fairly ordinary,
C, change it to G. And then F, pretty ordinary, but then it goes [sings] 'I got arms' and that's a G minor.
Going to G minor and a C takes you to a whole new world. It was exciting."
The new world, McCartney here is referring to, not only implies an expansion of the chord material for the
composer, but also an extension of the semantic scope of the writer of the song lyrics. Turning the subdominant
into the tonic can be used to signify a retreat into the inner self.
