About Let It Be

Let It Be Lyrics

[Verse 1]

When I find myself in times of trouble

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom

Let it be

And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom

Let it be

[Chorus]

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom

Let it be

[Verse 2]

And when the broken-hearted people

Living in the world agree

There will be an answer

Let it be

For though they may be parted

There is still a chance that they will see

There will be an answer

Let it be

[Chorus]

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Yeah, there will be an answer

Let it be

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom

Let it be

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, yeah, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom

Let it be

[Verse 3]

And when the night is cloudy

There is still a light that shines on me

Shine until tomorrow

Let it be

I wake up to the sound of music

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom

Let it be, yeah

[Outro]

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, yeah, let it be

Oh, there will be an answer

Let it be

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, yeah, let it be

Oh, there will be an answer

Let it be

Let it be, let it be

Let it be, yeah, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom

Let it be
