Lyrics

I’ve (Cm7)made up my mind,

don’t (Bb6)need to think it o ver.

If I’m (Abmaj7)wrong I am right,

don’t (G7)need to look no fur ther.

This ain’t (Abmaj7)lust,

I

(Bb6)know

(Bb7)this is (Cm7)love.

(Gm7)But if (Eb)I tell the world,

I’ll (Bb6)nev er say e nough, ’cause it was (Cm7)not said to you, and that’s ex (G7)act ly what I need to do if (Abmaj7)I

end

(Bb6)up

with you.

(Abmaj9)Should I give up?

Or (Cm7)should I (Fm11)just keep chas ing (Abmaj7)pave ments (Abmaj13)e ven if it (Gm7)leads no where?

Or (Abmaj9)would it be a (Gm7)waste (Cm7)e ven (Fm11)if I knew my (Abmaj7)place?

Should I (Abmaj13)leave it there?

(Abmaj9)Should I give up?

Or (Cm7)should I (Fm11)just keep chas ing (Abmaj7)pave ments (Abmaj13)e ven if it (Gm7)leads no where?

I (Eb)build my self up

and (Bb6)fly a round in cir cles, wait ing (Cm7)as my heart drops and my (G7)back be gins to tin gle.

Fin al (Abmaj7)ly,

could this (Bb6)be

it or (Abmaj9)Should I give up?

Or (Cm7)should I (Fm11)just keep chas ing (Abmaj7)pave ments (Abmaj13)e ven if it (Gm7)leads no where?

Or (Abmaj9)would it be a (Gm7)waste (Cm7)e ven (Fm11)if I knew my (Abmaj7)place?

Or would it (Abmaj7)be a waste e ven if I (Gaug7)knew my place?

Should I leave it (F9)there?

(Abmaj7)Or

(Gm7)leads no where?

About “Chasing Pavements

Why does the accompaniment for "Chasing Pavements" 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 "Chasing Pavements" by Adele in?
The backing track is in Ab at 80 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 "Chasing Pavements" 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 "Chasing Pavements"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Chasing Pavements", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Chasing Pavements" 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.

Can I use "Chasing Pavements" as a backing track for singing?
