I’m a flame,

I’m the (G)dark in need of light.

When we (Bm)touch,

or Feel the (G)change in me to night.

So take me (Bm)up,

take me high (A)er.

There’s a (G)world not far from here.

We can (Bm)dance

or we can (G)burn in love to night.

So take me

Our hearts a live,

fire stones,

and when they strike

we feel the love.

Sparks will fly, they ig nite our bones,

but when they strike (D)we light up the world.

Hearts a live,

fire stones,

and when they strike

we feel the love.

Sparks will fly, they ig nite our bones,

but when they strike (D)we light up the world.

Firestone by Kygo — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Firestone” by Kygo 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 B at 114 BPM, a comfortable easy-level arrangement perfect for first-time learners.

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.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build confidence moving through six chords at a steady, mid-tempo groove. Your left hand plays block chords, so focus on memorizing the shapes for A, Bm, C, D, Em, and G until each one feels automatic — the jump from C up to D and then to Em is where most students hesitate, so isolate that transition early. At 114 BPM the rhythm is forgiving, but the upbeat pop feel means you need to keep your timing crisp; practice with a metronome at around 85 BPM first, then nudge it up in small increments. Play hands separately until the left hand practically runs on autopilot, then layer the melody in your right hand. Watch that Bm shape — the minor third catches people off guard if they've been coasting on the major chords. Stick with it, because this song will lock six essential chord changes into your muscle memory for good.
