Lyrics

Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

(Eb)Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

(Eb)Ooh.

One day it’s here and then it’s gone.

How are you still hold ing on?

How are you still hold ing on?

You’ve felt this way for far too long,

wait ing for a change to come.

You know you’re not the on ly one.

And (Ab)life

pass es you (Eb)by.

Don’t be wast ing your (Ab)time

on your own.

You’re al ways try’n to see your self

through the eyes of some one else.

Through the eyes of some one else.

Too shy to say that you need help.

You and ev ’ry bod y else.

You You and ev ’ry bod y else.

And (Ab)life

pass es you (Eb)by.

Don’t be wast ing your (Ab)time

on your own.

As your heart gets big ger

and you try to fi gure (Eb)out,

what’s it all a bout?

And your skin gets thick er

as you try to fig ure (Eb)out,

what’s it all a bout?

One day it’s here and then it’s gone.

How are you still hold ing on?

How are you still hold ing on?

One Day — Piano Accompaniment (Falling Notes)

About “One Day

Why does the accompaniment for "One Day" 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 "One Day" by Kodaline in?
The backing track is in Ab at 104 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 "One Day" 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 "One Day"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "One Day", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "One Day" 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 download the accompaniment for "One Day"?
Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.
Who wrote "One Day"?
"One Day" was originally performed by Kodaline. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What other backing tracks by Kodaline are available?
Other accompaniments by Kodaline: "All I Want", "Brand New Day", "Brother". Same toggle-the-melody, change-the-key setup.
Can I use "One Day" as a backing track for singing?
Yes — this is the piano accompaniment for One Day by Kodaline, with the chord notes falling visually so you can see exactly when each chord lands. Original key is Ab; transpose live to fit your voice.
How is this different from the bar-sheet accompaniment?
Same audio backing — different visualization. Falling notes show each chord note dropping in real time (like Synthesia), which makes the chord rhythm easier to feel. Use whichever view helps you stay on the beat.
