Ah, but ev ’ry one finds (Bm7)the right way

some (E5)day.

Whoa, (Am7)zoom.

(Em7)I’d (D)like to (Bm7)fly far a way (Em7)from (Am7)here,

(Em7)where my (D)mind

can (Am7)be fresh and clear.

And (Em7)I’ll

(Cmaj7)find the (Bm7)love

(Am7)that I long to see;

(D)peo ple (Bm7)can be just (Am7)what they want to be.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Oh.

I wish the world (Bm7)were tru ly hap py,

Whoa,

Hey, ba (Am7)by.

Zoom by The Commodores — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Zoom by The Commodores 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 G at 90 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.
