I’m a prin cess cut from mar ble, smooth er than a storm.
And the scars that mark my bod y, they’re sil ver and gold.
My blood is a flood of ru bies, pre cious stones, it keeps my veins hot, the fi re’s found a home in (G#m)me.
I move through town, I’m qui et like a (C#m7)fire
and my (G#m)neck lace is of rope.
I tie it and un (D#5)tie it.
And now (G#m)peo ple talk to me, but noth ing ev er hits home.

I’m go ing in.
(Ooh!)
This is the start

They used to shout my name, now they whis per it.
I’m speed ing up
and this is the (C#m7)red, o range, yel low flick er (D#m7)beat spark ing up my heart.
We’re at the start,

I nev er watch the stars, there’s so much down here.
So I just try

I dream all year, but they’re not the sweet (C#)kinds

About “Yellow Flicker Beat”
- Is the engraved accompaniment score for "Yellow Flicker Beat" suitable for a pianist?
- Yes — both hands are notated in classic piano notation (treble + bass clefs, key G#, real chord symbols), engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML. A staff pianist or accompanist can read this directly from the screen or printed PDF and play the backing while you sing the melody.
- What key is the piano accompaniment for "Yellow Flicker Beat" by Lorde in?
- The backing track is in G# at 96 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 "Yellow Flicker Beat" 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 "Yellow Flicker Beat"?
- Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Yellow Flicker Beat", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
- Can I use "Yellow Flicker Beat" 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.

- What is this accompaniment Sheet Music view?
- Same engraver-grade rendering as the standard Sheet Music mode — both hands, classic piano notation, key of G#, real chord symbols — but the audio is the karaoke / backing-track arrangement of "Yellow Flicker Beat" with the lead melody removed. Perfect for singers, lead instruments, and ensemble practice.
- Can I sing or play melody while the score follows along?
- Yes. The backing track removes the melody so you can sing or play it on top while the chord changes and rhythm guide you. The engraved score scrolls in time with the audio so you never lose your place.

- Yes — treble + bass clefs, key signature, time signature, beams, dynamics, and chord symbols above the staff, all rendered from the original publisher MusicXML. Identical reading experience to a printed piano accompaniment book.
