While I was in London on Monday I took the opportunity to visit the British Library and have a look at the Paul McCartney: The Lyrics exhibition. It was fab to see such legendary lyrics which had been scrawled on scraps of paper.
On display are about twenty original documents which include the lyrics to "Yesterday", "Hey Jude" and "Mull of Kintyre" and relating photographs, plus the two volumes of "Paul McCartney: The Lyrics" to inspect.
It's well worth a look for any Beatles fan, if you are in London. See photos.
Please feel free to hide photos if they'r not wanted .
