🎵 Let's sing along with the 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, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom

Let it be


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


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


Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be

Whisper words of wisdom

Let it be


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


Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be

There will be an answer

Let it be


Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be

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
