Interesting facts and trivia about The Long And Winding Road - Anthology 3 Version. By Songfacts®.

One of the last Beatles songs, Paul McCartney wrote this based on tensions within the band.

The road McCartney is talking about is the B842 which runs down the east coast of Kintyre and on into Campbeltown near his Scottish farmhouse.

McCartney: "I just sat down at my piano in Scotland, started playing and came up with that song, imagining it was going to be done by someone like Ray Charles. I have always found inspiration in the calm beauty of Scotland and again it proved the place where I found inspiration."
