{LYRICS}
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."
Let it be, let it be, let it be
Oh, let it be
(Whisper words of wisdom
"Let it be.")
And when the brokenhearted 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, yeah, let it be.
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be, oh let it be!
(There will be an answer, let it be.)
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be, oh, let it be!
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
(Instrumental break)
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be, oh, let it be
(Whisper words of wisdom, let it be)
Yeah, let it be.
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on till tomorrow
Let it be, yeah, let it be
And I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be (Let it be!)
Let it be, oh, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be...
Let it be, let it be, oh, let it be
(Whisper words of wisdom, let it be...)
