Lyrics written by John Lennon but never put to music or published are now part of the White Feather: The Spirit of Lennon exhibition in Liverpool.
Ann Darby, the curator of the Beatles Story museum - where the exhibition is to be held - believes the lyrics may date from 1966. Speaking to the media she explained: "When the lyrics came up for auction over ten years ago, the auctioneers Sotheby’s estimated they were written in 1966. This seems to be based on the fact that some of the lyrics are written on a note sent to George Harrison by some Japanese fans. The Beatles played in Japan that year but this could of course be a coincidence."
The White Feather: The Spirit of Lennon exhibition runs to 31 December 2009.
