I'll go with "Mother Nature's Son" and "Blackbird."
"Dear Prudence" is up there, too.

"Dear Prudence" has one of my all-time favorite McCartney basslines.
And it has the fun feature of being about real events -- Prudence Farrow
"going barmy" with meditation -- in Rishikesh.
I saw footage of Prudence Farrow talking about meditation, and she
struck me as a bit mentally shaky.

BTW, I read online that John and George became instantly sympathetic to Prudence Farrow after she admitted to them that her voyage to India was
in part an effort to put a bad LSD experience behind. John and George
were well-familiar with such experiences.
Mia Farrow had gone to Rishikesh to join her sister but also to escape
the media scrutiny that she had endured through marrying and divorcing
Frank Sinatra. Of course, once the Beatles arrived in Rishikesh, the
media showed up, too.
