Lyrics

Child hood (Ab)liv ing

is eas y to (Ab)do;

the things that you want ed,

well, I bought them for you.

Grace less (Ab)la dy,

you know who I am.

You know I can’t (Db)let you

just slide through my hands.

And wild

hor ses

could n’t drag me a way,

and wild

hor ses

could n’t drag me a way.

I watched you suf fer

a dull ach ing pain,

and now you’ve de ci ded

to show me the same.

No sweep ing (Ab)ex its

or off stage lines

could make me feel bit ter

or treat you un kind.

And wild

(Db)hor ses

could n’t drag me a way,

and wild

hor ses

could n’t drag me a way.

I know I’ve you,

sin and a lie,

I have my free dom,

but I have much time.

Fate has been (Ab)suf fered

and tears must be cried;

so let’s do some liv ing

af ter we die.

And wild

(Db)hor ses

could n’t drag me a way,

and wild

hor ses

could n’t drag me a way.

and wild

hor ses

could n’t drag me a way,

a way.

About “Wild Horses”

Why does the accompaniment for "Wild Horses" 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 "Wild Horses" by Susan Boyle in?
The backing track is in Ab at 66 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 "Wild Horses" 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 "Wild Horses"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Wild Horses", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Wild Horses" 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 "Wild Horses"?
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 "Wild Horses" as a backing track for singing?
Yes — this is the piano accompaniment for Wild Horses by Susan Boyle, 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?
