The single version of the song, with a shortened intro and some minor differences in the verses, was released on 11 April 1970, a month before the album. The song was the final single released by the band before McCartney announced his departure from the group on 10 April 1970.Let It Be was written and composed by McCartney in 1969, during a period of distress and depression for the Beatles.
