Jeremy ~ pearl jam.

That base just stirs something deep inside me every time I hear it, then the subtle tingle of a symbol followed by the sudden fast paced drumming and the piercing vocal from Eddie Vedder.

Even after hearing it Tens of thousands of times!

I saw The Stones at the old Wembley stadium in about 1987 / 88 and they played "give me shelter" and it was quite possibly the best individual song I've seen played live. The lady singing backing vocals was unbelievable. Definitely a goose bumps moment !!

The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night. 56 yrs later and people STILL don't really know what chord it is. Or how they even played/recorded it.

Jaws - John William's iconic theme score. I mean c'mon. He made the WHOLE world terrified of paddling with just two notes blown on a tuba!

Ludwig van Beethoven - Symphony No 5. When you hear those first 4 notes you immediately sing the next 4. Every time.

It is basically a G11 chord, but what the sneaky bastards did was use a guitar and a quite piano to play the chord

Ooof! Well the academics will disagree with you on that!

Here are a few suggestions...

A dominant 9th of F in the key of C

G-C-F-Bb-D-G

C-Bb-D-F-G-C in the key of C

A polytriad ii7/V in Ab major

G7sus4 (open position)

D7sus4 (open position)

G7 with added 9th and suspended 4th

A superimposition of Dm, F, and G

Gsus4/D

G11sus4

G7sus7/A

Dm11 with no 9th

Gm7add11

G9sus4/D

Some people say the chord was confirmed by George Harrison as an Fadd9 during an online chat on 15 February 2001 and was played on a 12 String with Paul also playing (possibly) a grand piano. But George couldn't recall what Paul was playing!

However I think the guitar/piano theory you suggest is likely correct given what instruments would have been at Abbey Rd in 1964.

We just don't know though. Even though many have tried to replicate it.

Great fun!

I actually agree with you, but they definitely doubled up the guitar and piano notes on the intro and the solo.

It got me thinking and I was just noodling around. If you were doing a cover and you played the G11 along with George's Fadd9 (there is that higher G in there) you'd defo get away with it!

Brilliant stuff really. Just absolute genius!
