Tale as old as time,
true as it can be.
Bare ly e ven friends, then some bod y bends un ex pect ed ly.
Just a lit tle change,
small, to say the least.
Both a lit tle scared, nei ther one pre pared, Beau ty and the Beast.
Ev er just the same,
ev er a sur prise.
Ev er as be fore,
ev er just as sure
as the sun will rise.
Tale as old as time,
tune as old as song.
Bit ter sweet and strange,
find ing you can change,
learn ing you were wrong.
Cer tain as the sun
ris ing in the East,
tale as old as time,
song as old as rhyme,
Beau ty and the Beast.
Tale as old as time,
song as old as rhyme,
Beau ty and the Beast.
This page shows “Beauty And The Beast” by Alan Menken in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of C at 100 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
