Most likely Pete was reading a chord chart rather than actual musical
notation. Formal musical notation doesn't really lend itself to rock and
roll anyway, and it's not necessary to being a great rock musician (in
fact, the only Beatle to learn to read music is Paul, and this was well
into his career).
