Lyrics

The (Em)club is n’t the best place to find a lov er, so the (C)bar is where I go.

(Em)Me and my friends at the (Am)ta ble, do ing shots, drink ing (C)fast, and then we talk slow.

And you come (Em)o ver and start up a con ver (Am)sa tion with just me, and (C)trust me, I’ll give it a (D)chance.

Now, take my (Em)hand, stop, put Van the (Am)Man on the juke box, and (C)then we start to dance.

And now, I’m sing ing like, (Em)‘girl, you know I (Am)want your love, (C)your love was hand made (D)for some bo dy like (Em)me.

Come on, now, (Am)fol low my lead, (C)I may be cra zy, (D)don’t mind me.

Say, (Em)boy, let’s not (Am)talk too much, (C)grab on my waist and (D)put that bo dy on (Em)me.

Come on, now, (Am)fol low my lead, come, (C)come on, now, fol low my (CN.C.)lead.’ Mmm.

I’m in (Am)love with the shape of (C)you, we push and (D)pull like a mag net (Em)do.

Al though my (Am)heart is fall ing (C)too, I’m in (D)love with your bo dy.

Last (Am)night you were in my (C)room, and now my (D)bed sheets smell like (Em)you.

Ev ’ry day dis cov er (Am)ing some thing brand (C)new.

Well, I’m in (D)love with your bo dy.

(Em)Oh, I, oh, I, (Am)oh, I, oh, I.

Well, I’m in (D)love with your bo dy.

(Em)Oh, I, oh, I, (Am)oh, I, oh, I.

Well, I’m in (D)love with your bo dy.

(Em)Oh, I, oh, I, (Am)oh, I, oh, I.

Well, I’m in (D)love with your bo dy.

Ev ’ry day dis cov er (Am)ing some thing brand (C)new.

I’m in (D)love with the shape of (Em)you.

Shape Of You by Ed Sheeran — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Shape Of You by Ed Sheeran 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 E at 82 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.
