"Life gives you minor premonitions," McCartney said. "You don't think of them as premonitions until the dream comes true and you think, 'Hey, I wonder if that was a sign?'.

"I remember when John and I were first hanging out together, I had a dream about digging in the garden with my hands."

He added: "I'd dreamt that before but I'd never found anything other than an old tin can. But in this dream, I found a gold coin. I kept digging and I found another. And another."

On telling Lennon about the vision, his songwriting partner replied that he had had the same dream.

McCartney said: "So both of us had this dream of finding treasure. And I suppose you could say it came true."
