Par contre moi j'avais LU ce truc mais je n'avais jamais entendu ton bootleg avec le dernier accord... hé ben je préfère sans: j'ai toujours aimé la manière si abrupte dont la chanson se fini, qui va si bien avec le coté anecdotique de la compo... et avec le fait que cela soit la note finale du dernier album des Beatles! qui fait qu'on reste vraiment sur sa fin...
Suite à l'édition du morceau il a été placé en toute fin de bande au cas où.
C'est lors des écoutes que Macca a réentendu Her Majesty en fin d'album, que ça lui a plu, et qu'il(s) ont (a)décidé de la garder comme ça à cet endroit avec la fin suspendue sans l'accord final.
Tiens, il y a aussi différentes versions enregistrées du morceau lors du projet "Get Back" en janvier 69, dont celle-ci :
"Originally intended to be an actual tribute to the Queen of England, this song was supposed to be placed in between "Mean Mr. Mustard" and "Polythene Pam" on the side two Abbey Road medley, but Paul McCartney had it removed because he didn't like it. Abbey Road studios engineer John Kurlander explains: "We did all the remixes and cross-fades to overlap the songs, Paul was there, and we heard it together for the first time. He said 'I don't like 'Her Majesty,' throw it away,' so I cut it out - but I accidentally left in the last note. He said, 'It's only a rough mix, it doesn't matter,' in other words, don't bother abut making a clean edit because it's only a rough mix. I'd been told never to throw anything away, so after he left, I picked it up off the floor, put about twenty seconds of red leader tape before it and stuck it onto the end of the edit tape. The next day, down at Apple, Malcolm Davies cut a playback lacquer of the whole sequence and, even though I'd written on the box that 'Her Majesty' was unwanted, he too thought, 'Well, mustn't throw anything away, I'll put it on at the end.' I'm only assuming this, but when Paul got that lacquer he must have liked hearing 'Her Majesty' tacked on the end... We never remixed 'Her Majesty' again, that was the mix which ended up on the finished LP. This is why 'Her Majesty' doesn't have a final guitar chord - it lays unheard, at the beginning of 'Polythene Pam.' And the jarring electric guitar chord that begins 'Her Majesty' is actually from the end of the original 'Mean Mr. Mustard.'"
