Here I Am — Classic Piano Sheet Music
45 people have learned this song
Read "Here I Am" by Air Supply in classic piano notation — both hands, real chords + notes, in the published key of C. Engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML; click any note to jump there as the score follows along at 84 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to develop your Alberti bass — your left hand will cycle broken-chord patterns at a gentle 84 BPM, which gives you just enough time to land each shape cleanly before the next change.
Pay special attention to the transitions into A7 and E7, since those introduce sharps (C♯ and G♯) that don't appear anywhere else in the key of C; isolate those bars hands-separately until the finger adjustment feels automatic.
The move from Fmaj7 to Em7 can also catch you off guard because the top note only shifts by a half step — keep your hand quiet and let just the right fingers move.
I'd suggest starting at around 60 BPM, looping the verse progression until your left hand's Alberti pattern feels steady without you watching it, then layer in the melody.
Use a little sustain pedal on each chord change to keep the ballad feel warm, but lift cleanly so the melancholic color doesn't blur.
This is the piece that'll make minor-key chord flows — Am, Dm, Em and their seventh voicings — feel like second nature under your fingers.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Here I Am" 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 C, 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 84 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.
