In order to play the song Let It Be by the Beatles according to my piano tutorial you only need to know the names of the keys on the keyboard. The rest is shown clearly on the video. This song is really great for accompanying yourself so don't miss the fun.
Let's get to work!

The How to Play Piano Chords Lesson. will show you the concept behind our piano tutorials. Make sure you went through this lesson if you haven't done so yet. It will give you a clear view on how we're going to learn to accompany ourselves on the piano.

The Beatles Let It Be Piano Tutorial contains five chords: C major chord, F major chord, G Major Chord and G/B chord.

The last chord is a slash chord. If you're not familiar with them I suggest you Click here to go through this piano lesson as well.

The Full Hand Position of the Beatles Let It Be piano tutorial.

During the Beatles Let It Be Tutorial we will limit ourselves to playing all chords within the range of B under middle C and Bb above middle C with the right hand.

That means that we have to play all five chords in the correct Chord Inversions .

Here are the suitable chord inversions of all five chords within the given range.

C Major root position F Major 2nd Inversion
G Major 1st inversion A Minor Chord in the 1st inversion

We'll set the left hand on the C position starting from the lower C. Later on we will be asked to stretch our hand to the B note next to middle C and we'll go back to the lower C by performing a crossing over.

Beatles Let It Be Groove

I suggest you first practice playing one chord for each bar (or sometimes two chords in a bar) before you move to the next level and add the groove.

The groove is a pattern in the right hand and the left hand that repeats through the whole song. Click here to learn more about how to groove.

Anyways, here is the groove for Beatles Let It Be piano tutorial.

Beatles/ Let It Be

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, 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, .....

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, .....
