                    Let it Be – The Beatles
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Written by: Lennon/McCartney
From: "Let it Be" (1970)

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard

My reading here includes the notes that organ, brass and harmonies add to 
the regular chords (especially in the chorus) and a variation in the last 
verse (an extra Dm/A).

I also added tabs for verse, chorus and the two bar link which features 
a Bb (the minor 7th of the C chord) in the bass that is also missing 
from the other versions but which adds to the gospel feel of the song.

[Verse 1]

       C              G                Am          Fmaj7    F6
When I find myself in times of trouble mother Mary comes to me
C                 G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
Speaking words of wisdom let it be
    C             G               Am                Fmaj7    F6
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
C                 G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be


[Chorus]

       Am         G6         Fmaj7      C
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
C                G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be


[Verse 2]
    C               G              Am            Fmaj7  F6
And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
C                G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
There will be an answer, let it be
    C                  G               Am             Am/G Fmaj7     F6
For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see
C                G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
There will be an answer, let it be


[Chorus]

       Am         G6         Fmaj7      C
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
C                G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
There will be an answer, let it be


[Chorus]

       Am         G6         Fmaj7      C
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
C                G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

    C                 G                Am                 Fmaj7     F6
And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me
C             G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
  C              G              Dm/A   Am   Fmaj7    F6
I wake up to the sound of music mother Mary comes to me
C                 G            | F   C/E G/D | C |
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
