(D)Last Christ mas I gave you my heart, but the (Bm)ver y next day you gave it a way.

(Em7)This year,

to save me from tears, I’ll (A7)give it to some one spe cial.

Once bit ten and twice shy,

I keep my dis tance but you still catch my eye.

Tell me ba by, do you re cog nise me?

Well it’s been a year, it does n’t sur prise me.

Last Christmas by Wham! — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Last Christmas” by Wham! 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 100 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.
