Lyrics

For you I’d write a (Dm)sym pho ny.

I’d tell the vi o lins it’s time to sink or swim; watch ’em play for ya.

For (Dm)you I’d be

run nin’ a thou sand miles, just get to where you are.

Step to the beat of my heart.

I don’t need a (F)whole lot com ing from you, I ad mit I’d rath er give you the world, or we can share mine.

I know I won’t be the (F)first one giv ing you all this at ten tion.

Ba by, lis ten: I just need some bo dy to love.

I, I (G)don’t need too much, just some bo dy, some bo dy to love.

I don’t need noth ing else.

I pro mise, girl, I swear.

I just need some bo dy to love.

Somebody To Love by Queen — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Somebody To Love” by Queen 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 Bb at 132 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.
