Intro: C G Am Fmaj7 F6 C G F F/E F/D C

    C             G
When I find myself in times of trouble
Am        Fmaj7  F6
Hybrid children come to me
  C         G     F  C
Pray for father roaming, roaming free
  C       G
And in my hour of darkness
    Am       Fmaj7  F6
It is standing right in front of me
  C         G        F C G/B
He is the thing that should not let it be
   Am     C/G
Let it be, let it be
 F        C
Hybrid children watch the sea
C             G       F F/E F/D C
He is the thing that should not let it be
    C       G
Crawling chaos underground people
Am        Fmaj7  F6
Living in the world agree
  C         G     F  C
The wretch is fearless with insanity
  C       G
And though he has been sleeping
    Am       Fmaj7  F6
There is still a chance that he will see
  C         G        F C G/B
That this thing should not let it be
   Am     C/G
Let it be, let it be
 F        C
Hybrid children watch the sea
C             G       F F/E F/D C
He is the thing that should not let it be
   Am     C/G
Not dead which eternal lie
 F      C
With stranger eons death may die
C        G       F F/E F/D C
These are words of wisdom     let it be
  C       G
I wake up to the sound of music(metallica
    Am       Fmaj7  F6
Let the metal come to me
C        G       F F/E F/D C
Death to the one that will not let it be
   Am     C/G
Let it be, let it be
 F        C
Hybrid children watch the sea
C             G       F F/E F/D C
He is the thing that should not let it be
