[Intro]
Oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
And remember, remember to let her into your heart
'Cause then you can start ('Cause then you can start)
Oh yeah, to make it better
[Verse 2]
Hey Jude, don't be afraid (Jude, afraid)
If you want her, you were made to go out and get her (Jude)
Go out and get her, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, alright
And the minute, the minute that you let her under your skin
Then you can begin (Then you can begin), oh
To make it better (Better, better, better, better)
[Chorus]
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulder
For don't you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world just a little bit colder?
[Verse 3]
Hey Jude, don't let me down
If you want her, if you want her (Hey Jude)
You got to go on out and get her, go on out and get her
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Hey Jude)
Whoa, and remember, remember (Hey Jude)
When you let her into your heart
Hey Jude, that's when you can start (That's when you can start)
Whoo-ooh, to make it better (Better, better, better, better)
A little bit better
[Outro]
Jude, go and get her somehow
You better go quick, better go fast, better go now
Jude, hey Jude, whoa (Hey Jude)
Jude, yeah (Go and get her somehow)
Oh, and you better go quick, better go fast, better go now
Jude, I tell ya, Jude, oh, Jude
Jude, go and get her somehow
Yeah, better go quick, better go
Oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
And remember, remember to let her into your heart
'Cause then you can start ('Cause then you can start)
Oh yeah, to make it better
[Verse 2]
Hey Jude, don't be afraid (Jude, afraid)
If you want her, you were made to go out and get her (Jude)
Go out and get her, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, alright
And the minute, the minute that you let her under your skin
Then you can begin (Then you can begin), oh
To make it better (Better, better, better, better)
[Chorus]
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulder
For don't you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world just a little bit colder?
[Verse 3]
Hey Jude, don't let me down
If you want her, if you want her (Hey Jude)
You got to go on out and get her, go on out and get her
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Hey Jude)
Whoa, and remember, remember (Hey Jude)
When you let her into your heart
Hey Jude, that's when you can start (That's when you can start)
Whoo-ooh, to make it better (Better, better, better, better)
A little bit better
[Outro]
Jude, go and get her somehow
You better go quick, better go fast, better go now
Jude, hey Jude, whoa (Hey Jude)
Jude, yeah (Go and get her somehow)
Oh, and you better go quick, better go fast, better go now
Jude, I tell ya, Jude, oh, Jude
Jude, go and get her somehow
Yeah, better go quick, better go
