    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.

    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.

    Then you'll begin to make it

    Better better better better better better, oh.

    Na na na nananana, nannana, hey Jude…
