Lyrics

She turns a round and she (A)meets (D)his gaze.

The lights are dim, there’s a (A)smok (Bm7)y haze.

They share a smile and a (D)se (G)cret wave.

It’s a mo ment built (A)to save.

They start to move for a a (A)cross (D)the floor.

The room is fro zen, just want to (Bm7)make ing more.

The hap py cou full, ple but on they’re (G)all dis play

with noth ing stand ing in their way.

It’s so ro man tic I could die right here and now.

It’s gon na be that way for (G)us, (A)I (F#m7)know some (B)how.

(E)Some day (E)when it’s me, I’ll know (B)our (E)love was (E)meant to be.

Not (B)one (C#m)sin gle com pli (E)ca tion or (A)cause for hes i (Amaj7)ta (B)tion.

(E)Some day (E)when the dream is (A)com ing true,

(F#m7)all you’ll need is me and all I’ll need is (CN.C.)you.

They stop and pose for a a (A)pho (D)to graph.

He jokes a round zen, just want to (Bm7)make her laugh.

The room is cou full, ple but on they’re (G)all a lone.

They have a lan guage all their own.

And I’m so jeal ous I could cry, and yet I know

it won’t be long be fore you (G)say (A)we’re (F#m7)good to (B)go.

(E)Some day (E)when it’s me, I’ll know (B)our (E)love was (E)meant to be.

Not (B)one (C#m)sin gle com pli (E)ca tion or (A)cause for hes i (Amaj7)ta (B)tion.

(E)Some day (E)when the dream is (A)com ing true,

(F#m7)all you’ll need is me and all I’ll need is (CN.C.)you.

I know not ev ’ry mar riage lasts when things go bad.

I’ve seen the warn ing signs; I (Bm7)call them (D)“mom and dad.”

But soon you’ll take my hand and (E)pledge your love to me.

Till then I’ll just get mar ried vi car i ous ly.

(Gb)Some day (Gb)when it’s me, I’ll know (Db)our (Gb)love was (Gb)meant to be.

(Gb)Some day (Gb)when the dream is (Cb)com ing true, (Is com ing true.)

(Abm7)all you’ll need is me, (All you’ll need is me.)

and all I’ll need is you.

Someday by Matthew Sklar — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Someday” by Matthew Sklar 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 132 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.

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.
