Lyrics

When I’m (F)less than (Fsus)I should be,

when I (F)just can’t (Bb)face the day,

you when (Gm7)dark ness (F)falls

a (Bb)round me,

and I (Dm)just can’t (Bb6)find my way.

(C)When my (F)eyes don’t (Gm)clear ly see,

when I (F)stum ble (Bb)through it all,

you I (Bb)lean up (F)on,

you (Bb)keep me strong,

and you (Gm7)rise me (C7)when

I fall.

(C)You are (Dm)there when (Dm)I

most (Bb)need you,

you are (Dm)there so (C)con stant ly.

You come (Dm)shin ing (Am)through,

you (Gm)al ways (F)do,

you are (F)al ways (C7)there

for me.

When life (F)brings me (Fsus)to my knees,

when my (F)back’s a (Bb)gainst the wall,

you are (Gm7)stand ing (F)there

right (Bb)with me,

just to (Dm)keep me (Bb6)stand ing tall.

(C)Though a (F)bur den (Gm)I may be,

you don’t (F)wea ry, (Bb)you don’t rest.

You are (Bb)reach ing (F)out

to (Bb)car ry me,

and I (Gm7)know I’m (C7)heav

en blest.

(C)You are (Dm)there when (Dm)I

most (Bb)need you,

you are (Dm)there so (C)con stant ly.

You come (Dm)shin ing (Am)through,

you (Gm)al ways (F)do,

you are (F)al ways (C7)there

for me.

When life me.

(D)You are (Em)there when (Em)I

most (C)need you,

you are (Em)there so (D)con stant ly.

And you come (Em)shin ing (Bm)through,

you (C)al ways do,

you are (Am7)al ways (D7)there

for me.

(D)You are (Em)there when (Em)I

most (C)need you,

you are (Em)there so (D)con stant ly.

And you come (Em)shin ing (Bm)through,

you are (G)al ways (D)there

for me.

About “Always There

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Always There"?
Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature Bb. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "Always There" by Secret Garden played in?
Always There is arranged in the key of Bb on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "Always There"?
The arrangement plays at 64 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "Always There" easy to play on piano?
Yes — this is one of our beginner-friendly arrangements with simplified chords and color-coded notes.
Can I download sheet music for "Always There"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "Always There"?
"Always There" was originally performed by Secret Garden. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.
What chords are used in "Always There"?
This arrangement uses 21 chords: Am, Am7, Bb, Bb6, Bbmaj7, Bm, C, C7, +13 more.
Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Always There" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature Bb, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes — slow the tempo from 64 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
