Hey, Jude, don't make it bad

4D 5B 5D-- 7B--- 7B 7D 6B 6D 6B 5D 5B

Take a sad song and make it better

6B 6D 6D-- 6D 8D 7B 7D 7B 6D 6B

Remember to let her into your heart

4B 4D 5B 6D 6B-- 6B 5D 5B 3D 4B

Then you can start to make it better

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid,

4D 5B 5D-- 7B---7B 7D 6B 6D 6B 5D 5B

you were made to go out and get her

6B 6D 6D-- 6D 8D 7B 7D 7B 6D 6B

The minute you let her under your skin

4B 4D 5B 6D 6B-- 6B 5D 5B 3D 4B

Then you begin to make it better

For now you know that its a fool

7B 6D 7B 5D

Who plays it cool
