It’s your fresh man year and you’re (Csus2)gon na be here for the (Em7)next four years in this

town.

Hop in’ one of those sen ior boys

be fore.”

’Cause when you’re fif teen

(Em7)and some bod y tells you they (D)love you, you’re gon na be (C)lieve them.

And when you’re fif teen,

It’s your fresh man year and you’re (Csus2)gon na be here for the (Em7)next four years in this

town.

Hop in’ one of those sen ior boys

Fifteen by Taylor Swift — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Fifteen 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 92 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.
