Lyrics

The was (D5)drought was the ver y worst,

(C5)ah, ah,

It was months and months of back and forth.

(C5)Ah,

ah,

you’re still all (D5)o ver me like a (E5)wine stained dress I can’t (C5)wear an y more.

The wa (D5)Hung my head as I lost the war, and the sky turned black like a per fect storm.

The (G)rain

came

(D)pour

ing down; when I was drown ing, (C5)that’s when I could fi nal ly breathe.

And by

(D)morn

ing,

(Em)gone was an y trace of you.

I think I am fi nal ly clean.

There was (D5)noth ing left to do; worst,

(C5)ah,

ah,

when the but (D5)ter flies turned to (E5)dust, they cov ered (C5)my whole room.

So I punched a hole of in the roof,

(C5)ah,

ah,

I let the (D5)flood car ry a a (E5)way all my pic can’t (C5)tures of y you.

The wa (D5)Hung ter filled my I lungs; I screamed and so loud, but no one a heard a thing.

The (G)rain came

(D)pour ing down; when I was drown ing, (C5)that’s when I could fi nal ly breathe.

And by

(D)morn ing,

(Em)gone was an y trace of you.

I think I am fi nal ly clean.

(D5)I think I am fi nal ly clean.

(C5)Ah.

Said, I think I am fi nal ly clean.

(C5)Ah.

(G5)Ten months so ber, I must ad mit,

just be cause you’re clean don’t mean you don’t miss it.

Ten months old der; I won’t give in.

(C5)Now that I’m clean.

I’m nev er gon na risk it.

The drought was the ver y worst,

ah, ah,

when the flow ers that we’d grown to geth er (C5)died of thirst.

The (G)rain came

(D)pour ing down; when I was drown ing, (C5)that’s when I could fi nal ly breathe.

And by

(D)morn ing,

(Em)gone was an y trace of you.

I think I am fi n’lly clean.

The (G)rain came

(D)pour ing down; when I was drown ing, (C5)that’s when I could fi nal ly breathe.

And by

I think I am fi n’lly clean.

The think I am fi nal ly clean.

Fi nal ly clean.

Think I’m fi nal ly clean.

Ah, ah.

Clean by Taylor Swift — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Clean” by Taylor Swift 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 G at 100 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.
