The original song was done mostly with piano, but this fingerstyle rendition of the song “Let It Be” is a lot of fun to play. It doesn’t replicate the piano part but takes the melody and chord progression and combines them for instrumental solo performance.
This riff will help you tremendously by using your thumb for the bass notes when picking. With this style of music (classical fingerpicking), you will almost always use your thumb to pick the bass notes.
