Yeah, common knowledge. John was sued for it also ..

“Cover versions. Berry's music publisher, Morris Levy, sued John Lennon for copyright infringement because of the melodic similarity between "You Can't Catch Me" and the Beatles' 1969 song "Come Together", written by Lennon, and because the Beatles' song used some of the lyrics of Berry's song ("here come old flat-top") ...”

Bloody fascinating! The Beatles do make it their own, but man! They basically sample Chuck Berry. Unreal.
