It's actually in the correct key as the record! Usually, Beatles' sheet music was published in woefully incorrect keys! Most of their music was built around "guitar" keys which have open, resonating chords. The sheet music seemed to be made for orchestras with keys like Bb and Eb. That did teach me how to transpose on the fly, though! Nowadays, they're correct.
