The only melody that I hear is coming from the bubbling of the water
pipe :)

Are you talking about the arpeggiated chords in the intro? I wouldn't
call that the melody, but it's a Baldwin Electric Solid-Body
Harpsichord, accoring the "Recording The Beatles". The solo at the end
is the same Moog synthesizer they used in several other songs on Abbey
Road.
