"Hey Jude" Original Notes, Handwritten by Paul McCartney

The 1968 Beatles' masterpiece is frequently included on music lists of the greatest songs of all time. The first song released on the Beatles’ own Apple Records label, “Hey Jude,” originally titled “Hey Jules,” was written for Julian Lennon by Paul McCartney to comfort him during the time of his parents John and Cynthia Lennon’s divorce.

The classic was the Beatles' biggest-selling single in the U.S., having sold five million copies in the first six months of its release and became the number one song in 12 countries.

Paul separated how he thought the song should be structured into four sections, with voices and instruments. These are his original notes, which include his personal doodles and drawings.
