Lyrics

When you (C)try your best but you (Em)don’t suc ceed,

when you (C)get what you want but (Em)not what you need,

when you (C)feel so tired that (Em)you can’t sleep,

stuck in re (C)verse.

And the (Em)tears come a stream ing down your face

when you (C)lose some thing you (Em)can’t re place.

but When you (C)love some one but it (Em)goes to waste,

could it be (C)worse?

Lights (C)will (G)guide

you home

and (C)ig (G)nite

your bones,

and I (C)will (Gsus)try

to fix you.

And (Em)high up a bove or down be low,

when you’re (C)too in love to (Em)let it go,

but if you (C)nev er try you’ll it (Em)nev er know

just what you’re (C)worth.

Lights (C)will (G)guide

you home

and (C)ig (G)nite

your bones,

and I (C)will (Gsus)try

to fix you.

And (Gsus)try

to fix you.

Tears stream

down your face (C)I when you lose some thing (G)you can not re place.

Tears stream

down your face and (C)I...

Tears stream

down your face.

(C)I prom ise you I will (G)learn from my mis takes.

Tears stream

down your face and (C)I...

Lights (C)will (G)guide

you home

and (C)ig (G)nite

your bones,

and I (C)will (Gsus)try

to fix you.

Fix You by Coldplay — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Fix You by Coldplay 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 80 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.
