I didn’t question #2 because like somebody said, Across The Universe had two versions, the one on Let It Be and the one on the wildlife compilation album.
My vision was for stuff like you might have seen on the Rarities album. But I won’t split hairs. Let us proceed with #10. If needed, I will add one tomorrow.

13 BEATLE SONGS WITH MORE THAN ONE OFFICIALLY RELEASED VERSION
Describe at least one difference
1. Thank You Girl (One version has extra harmonica in middle and at end. The other has no harmonica in those spots.)
2. Across The Universe (Original album version was overproduced by Phil Spector, while the Naked version is raw and kind of perfect.)
3. Helter Skelter (No fadeouts and fade ins on mono mix)
4. Let It Be (LP version has louder guitar solo than the single 45 version)
5. Penny Lane (original single had an additional flourish of piccolo trumpet notes at the end of the song).
6. Love Me Do (Ringo was relegated to playing tambourine while session drummer Andy White played drums. This version is on the ‘Please Please Me ‘ album. A version with Ringo on drums appears on ‘Past Masters ‘)
7. I Am The Walrus (On American 45 version, opening riff is heard 4 times instead of six. There is also an extra second or two of music between “I’m crying” and Yellow matter custard”).
8. While My Guitar Gently Weeps (White Album version is a soaring rock song with Clapton on lead guitar; the Anthology version is a contemplative acoustic version performed by George, with an extra verse.)
9. Help ! – The mono mix has an entirely different John lead vocal to the stereo, the tambourine is also missing.
10. Help ! (a different difference – if this doesn’t count, I can delete it) – The US Capitol version has the James Bond bit at the beginning.

@Jolly Jimmy, sorry to throw up another one (and thanks for tidying the list), but I question Penny Lane at 5 since the version cited was only sent out as a mono promo single to radio stations in the US and Canada and was replaced with the officially released version by the time of the single. It did not appear on an official Beatles release until the Pepper 50th anniversary edition (the version on the US Rarities was a fake, adding the extra piccolo trumpet notes to the stereo mix).

@Ron Nasty , I thought of that too. But I wasn’t sure what to do about it. I was more concerned with once bootlegged demos and alternate takes later released on the Anthology CDs.
Maybe after we complete this list and start a new one, I’ll throw in a couple more for the halibut.
