I Feel Fine
Composer(s) : Lennon and McCartney
Year : 1964
Alan W. Pollack 's "Notes On" I Feel Fine
The song begins with a single plucked "A" note which builds in feedback until
the string is vibrating hard enough to cause a feed-back-fuzz.
The "I Feel Fine" riff (repeat as needed):

Then play magic "I Feel Fine" riff as band comes back in.
Then repeat from verse 2 to the end of verse 3, except instead
of the very last line of verse 3, substitute:
D7 C G
She's in love with me and I feel fine
D7 C G
She's in love with me and I feel fine

This is obviously just the same riff moved down to different positions.
This is the main riff of the song.
In fact most of the song is just this riff played at the three different
positions (G,C,D)
The only different bit is :
G Bm C D7
I'm so glad that she's my little girl
G Bm C D7
She's so glad she's telling all the world
The solo is over the G/C/D riff.
