Lyrics

Some things are long for got ten,

some things were nev er said.

We were on one end less (C)road,

But I had a wand er ing (D7sus4)heart.

I said we were op po site lov (C)ers,

You kept try na prove me wrong.

And I know that I ran you (C)down,

so you ran a way with your (D7sus4)heart.

But just know that I want you back.

Just know (C)that I want you back.

Just know that I want you.

I’ll take the fall (C)and the fault in us, I’ll give you all the (C)love I nev er gave be fore I left you.

Just know that I want you back.

Just know (C)that I want you back.

Just know that I want you.

I’ll take the fall (C)and the fault in us, I’ll give you all the (C)love I nev er gave be fore I left you.

Just know that I want you you.

Want You Back by HAIM — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Want You Back” by HAIM 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 C at 114 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.
