She's Leaving Home is storytelling at its finest.

Ahh, even more great songs in here, but I think I had an easier time choosing, but I'm sure I'll regret a choice or two. Either way, here's what I picked at my first/second glance through:

Mean Mr. Mustard/Polythene Pam/She Came in Through the Bathroom Window & Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End - I absolutely LOVE Abbey Road, and the side 2 suite is some great stuff, so seeing the two chunks in here meant I was going to pick them no matter what.
Happiness Is a Warm Gun - One of my favorites from The Beatles/White Album, the crazy lyrics and shifting styles/meters really grabs me.
Wait - I just love this front-to-back, great little song with some awesome vocals.
Paperback Writer - This was another easy pick for me. Another song with great vocals, especially the opening, and the layered stuff throughout is just ear-candy.
You're Gonna Lose That Girl - Again, I love the vocals in this one, the echoed background vocals are fun to sing and harmonize to when I hear this one. I also really like the bridge to this one, too!
Got to Get You Into My Life - The HORNS. That's all. This one just POPS like no other, and is a big favorite of mine from Revolver.

Girl (this song deserves waaaaaay more votes)
Good Day Sunshine
She's Leaving Home
Within You Without You
Paperback Writer
Glass Onion
You're Gonna Lose That Girl

Fingers crossed for the fifth part with some extremely underrated or forgotten cuts. May I suggest songs like Sexy Sadie, I'm happy just to dance with you and You won't see me?  ;D

Will there be a fifth poll? Kev's post makes it seem like this is the last one - "Apologies if one of your favorites didn't make it on to any of these four polls." Sounds final to me, but I could be inferring wrong!

I'm just so happy to see that 'Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End' is top of this poll.

These songs are just the most perfect way to end an album and I lost count years ago as to how many times I've listened to those three songs together. Just beautiful  :heart :hefdaddy :heart :hefdaddy

Love that song, and love that it was featured very prominently in the movie Mask.

All the Abbey Road medley tracks (poor Sun King...)
Paperback Writer
Got To Get You Into My Life
Mother Nature's Son
Happiness is a Warm Gun

The White Album and Abbey Road are both extraordinary albums.
