A song being worked on by John Lennon immediately after the "Abbey Road" sessions was "Cold Turkey"...it was brought to the group (Beatles) but was not considered for the sessions. Lennon had decided to record it anyways, and he attempted a demo of the song.
There are three versions with one being the basic track, the second being the basic track with another acoustic guitar and vocals and the third having Yoko in the background contributing her own style of vocal.
All of these demos can be heard in their various forms on the vinyl bootlegs "The Lost Lennon Tapes Volume Six" for the first basic track, "The Lost Lennon Tapes Volume Seventeen" for the second version with the vocal/ acoustic overdub and finally "The Lost Lennon Tapes Volume Twenty" for the final version with Yoko's vocalization added. All the above bootleg vinyl on "Bag" records.
