Lyrics

Oh, they (C#m7)say peo ple (A6)come,

(E)say peo ple (G#m7)go,

this par (C#m7)tic u lar (A6)dia mond was (E)ex tra spe (B)cial.

And though (C#m7)you might be (A6)gone

and the (Esus4)world (E)may not (G#m7)know,

still I (C#m7)see you, ce (A6)lest ti al.

Like a (C#m7)li on you (A6)ran,

a (Esus4)god (E)dess you (G#m7)rolled,

like an (C#m7)ea gle you (A6)cir cled in (E)per fect pur (B)ple.

So how (C#m7)come things move (A6)on,

how (Esus4)come (E)cars don’t (G#m7)slow,

when it (C#m7)feels like the (A6)end of my world?

When I (C#m7)should, but I (A6)can’t let you go?

But when I’m (C#m7)cold,

(E)cold,

oh when I’m cold,

(E)cold,

there’s a (C#m7)light that you (A)give me when (E)I’m in shad (G#m7)ow,

there’s a (C#m7)feel ing you (A6)give me, an (Bsus4)ev er glow.

Like (C#m7)broth ers in (A6)blood,

(Esus4)sis (E)ters who (G#m7)ride

and we (C#m7)swore on that (A6)night we’d be (E)friends till we (B)die.

But the (C#m7)chang ing of (A6)winds

and the (E)way wa ters (G#m7)flow,

life as (C#m7)short as the (A6)fall ing of snow;

and now I’m gon na (A6)miss you, I know…

But when I’m (C#m7)cold,

(E)cold,

in wa ter rolled

(E)salt.

I (C#m7)know that you’re (A)with me and the (E)way you will (G#m7)show

and you’re (C#m7)with me wher (A6)ev er I go.

And you (C#m7)give me this (A6)feel ing, this ev er glow.

Oh.

What I would n’t (C#m7)give for just a (A6)mo ment to hold.

Yeah, I (C#m7)live for this (A6)feel ing, this ev er glow.

So if (C#m7)you love some (A6)one,

you should let them (G#m7)know,

oh, the (C#m7)light that you (A)left me will ev er glow.

About “Everglow

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Everglow"?
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 E. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "Everglow" by Coldplay played in?
Everglow is arranged in the key of E on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "Everglow"?
The arrangement plays at 73 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "Everglow" easy to play on piano?
This is an advanced arrangement. We recommend breaking it into sections and using the speed control to drill harder passages.
Can I download sheet music for "Everglow"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "Everglow"?

What other songs by Coldplay can I play here?
Try "HYMN FOR THE WEEKEND", "FIX YOU", "THE SCIENTIST". All are in our player with color-coded notes; pick the one matching your level.
Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Everglow" 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 E, 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 73 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.
