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.
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. Yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on 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.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

Information

This was the last single released by the Beatles and at the time it was written, tension was really beginning to increase in the recording studio. Mother Mary is in reference to Paul's mother and he felt that she was helping him through this dark time in his life when he didn't know if the band was going to get through it.
Paul: "I wrote it when all those business problems started to get me down. I really was passing through my 'hour of darkness' and writing this song was my way of exorcising those ghosts."
