Lyrics

(Be cause I’m hap py.) Clap a long if you feel like a room with out a roof.

(Be cause I’m hap py.) Clap a long if you feel like hap pi ness is the truth.

(Be cause I’m hap py.) Clap a long if you know what hap pi ness is to you.

(Be cause I’m hap py.) Clap a long if you feel like that’s what you wan na do.

Happy by Pharrell Williams — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Happy” by Pharrell Williams 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 138 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.
