Let It Be Sheet Music/Score

The sheet music for Let It Be written by The Beatles, is available below.

Let It Be was written by Paul McCartney, but as was usual for any of the Beatles output written by either John Lennon, or Paul McCartney, it is credited to Lennon/McCartney. It was released on the eponymous album, which was the last delivered by the Beatles (though incidentally not the final one to be recorded). The song hit the record shops in March 1970 and was also featured in the film by the same name, a documentary which follows the creation and recording of the album. In the lyrics there is the line "Mother Mary come to me", and according to McCartney this is a reference to his own mother Mary McCartney, who died when Paul was only 14. The idea for Let It Be in fact had, according to McCartny, come to him after dreaming about his mother, and her mentioning that: "It will be all right - just le it be". The opening lines are:

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.
