Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
            A7                             D

Then you begin to make it better.

Hey, Jude, Don't let me down

                A7                             D
You have found her, now go and get her

      G                                        D
Remember, to let her into your heart

                       A                      D
Then you can start to make it better.
