Paul McCartney's handwritten lyrics for The Beatles' song Hey Jude have sold at auction US $910,000.

The anonymous buyer purchased the item for almost six times more than the estimate.

Sir Paul wrote the 1968 hit to console the young Julian Lennon after the divorce of the boy's parents John and Cynthia.

The lyrics sheet was among more than 250 items auctioned to mark 50 years since the Liverpool band broke up.
