Lyrics

Say you’re sor ry, that face of an an gel comes out just when you need it to.

As I paced back and forth all this time ’cause I (Am)hon est ly be lieved in (F)you.

(Am)Hold ing on, the (F)days drag on.

Stu pid girl, I should ’ve known, I should ’ve known that I’m not a prin cess, this ain’t a fair y tale.

I’m not the one you’ll sweep off her feet, lead (G)her up the stair well.

This ain’t Hol ly wood, this is a small town.

I was a dream er be fore you went and let (G)me down.

Now it’s (F)too late for you and your white horse to come a (C)round.

White Horse by Taylor Swift — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “White Horse” by Taylor Swift 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 92 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.
