Hey Jude
Beatles · Past Masters Volume Two
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude refrain
don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool
who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Na na na na na
na na na na
Hey Jude don't let me down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
then you can start to make it better
So let it out and let it in
Hey Jude begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder
Na na na na na
na na na na yeah
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
Better, better, better, better, better, oh
Na, na na na na na na
na na na na, hey Jude
Na, na na na na na na
na na na na, hey Jude
Na, na na na na na na
na na na na, hey Jude
take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude refrain
don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool
who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Na na na na na

Hey Jude don't let me down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart

Hey Jude
Released in 1968, "Hey Jude" stands as a defining anthem of The Beatles' final era, blending pop sensibilities with a profound sense of empathy. Originally written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon to comfort John Lennon's son, the track evolved into a cultural touchstone through its extended instrumental outro and iconic "Ringo" drum solo. Featured on the compilation "Past Masters Volume Two," the recording captures the band's dynamic interplay and signature harmonies that characterized their late-period work. Its enduring popularity stems from its universal message of patience and encouragement, allowing it to transcend its origins and become a staple in global music history.
