There’s a place I go when I’m a lone, do an y thing I want, be an y one I wan na be, but it is us I see and I can not be lieve I’m fall in’.

That’s where I’m go in’, where are you go in’?

Hold it close; won’t let this go.

Dream catch me,

yeah.

Dream catch me when I fall,

or else I won’t come back at (D)all.

This page shows “Dream Catch Me” by Newton Faulkner 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 D at 112 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.
