Lyrics

(Gm)Where do I be gin

to tell the sto ry of how (D7)great a love can be,

the sweet love sto ry that is (Gm)old er than the sea,

the sim ple truth a bout the (D7)love she brings to me?

Where do I (Gm)start?

(Gm)With her first hel lo

she gave a mean ing to this (D7)emp ty world of mine.

There’d nev er be an oth er (Gm)love, an oth er time;

she came in to my life and (D7)made the liv ing fine.

Where do I (Gm)start?

She fills my (Gmaj7)heart.

She fills my (Cm)heart

with ver y (F7)spe cial things, with an gel (Bbmaj7)songs,

with wild i (Ebmaj7)mag in ings.

She fills my (A)soul

with so much (Gm)love that an y where I (Cm)go

I’m nev er (F7)lone ly.

With her a (Bbmaj7)long,

who could be (Eb)lone ly?

I reach for her (A7)hand;

it’s al ways (Dmaj7)there.

(Gm)How long does it last?

Can love be meas ured by the (D7)ho urs in a day?

I have no an swers now, but (Gm)this much I can say:

I know I’ll need her till the (D7)stars all burn a way,

and she’ll be (Gm)there.

Where Do I Begin by Andy Williams — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Where Do I Begin” by Andy Williams 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 Eb at 80 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.
