"The Night Before" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1965 album and film Help! The song was written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon–McCartney.

Lennon plays a Hohner Pianet electric piano throughout the song, accompanied by McCartney's ascending and descending bass lines. The song's verse has a call and response structure. McCartney's lead vocal alternates with Lennon and George Harrison's harmony, singing the chorus "Aaah, the night before …", the whole being alternated with a second melody.

The Beatles recorded the song at EMI's Abbey Road Studios on 17 February 1965. The band achieved a satisfactory rhythm track after two takes, and then overdubbed the vocals, lead guitar parts and maracas. The guitar solo over the third verse is repeated in part over the coda. Although author Ian MacDonald considers that the playing is more in McCartney's style, these solos were performed by Harrison and McCartney together. Lennon later recalled that Harrison and McCartney played "the same break exactly, both playing but in different octaves"
