Lyrics

You need a big God,

big e nough to hold your love.

You need a big God,

big e nough to fill you up.

You keep me up at night,

to my (C)mes sa ges you do not re ply.

You (Dm)know I still like you the most,

the (C)best of the best and the (Am)worst of the worst.

Well, you can nev er know

the pla ces that I go.

I still like you the most, you’ll

(C)al ways be my fav ’rite ghost.

You need a big God,

big e nough to hold your love.

You need a big God,

big e nough to fill you up.

Some times I think it’s get ting (Bb)bet ter,

and then it gets much worse.

Is it just part of the (Bb)pro cess?

Well, (C)Je sus Christ, it (Am)hurts.

And though I know I should know (Bb)bet ter,

well, I can make this work.

Is it just part of the (Bb)pro cess?

Well, (C)Je sus Christ, (Am)Je sus Christ, it hurts.

(Je sus (Dm)Christ, Je sus (Bb)Christ, it hurts.)

You need a big God,

big e nough to hold your love.

You need a big God,

big e nough to fill you up.

Sho wer your af fec tion, let it rain

on me

and pull down the moun tain, drag your (C)ci ties to the (Am)sea.

Sho wer your af fec tion, let it rain on me,

don’t leave me on this white cliff, let it (C)slide down to the, (Am)slide down to the (Dm)sea.

(C)Slide down to the, slide down to the (Dm)sea.

About “Big God”

Why does the accompaniment for "Big God" show falling notes?
Falling Notes makes each chord visual — colored notes drop onto the keyboard so you can FEEL the rhythm of the backing before each entry. Singers find it easier to lock in with the piano's groove when they see the chord notes land instead of just hearing them.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Big God" by Florence And The Machine in?
The backing track is in G at 74 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Big God" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Big God"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Big God", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Big God" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.

Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.

Can I use "Big God" as a backing track for singing?
