Lyrics

You know there’s a light that glows by the front door.

Don’t Don’t for (Gm7)get the key’s un der the mat.

Bit ter ness When (Eb)child hood stars shine, in’.

al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Go to church f’rence be ’cause your ma in’ ma says to,

vis it (Gm7)Grand pa ev ’ry chance that you you can.

“I love you” It won’t (Eb)be wast up ed time.

so Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Hold the door, say please, say thank you.

Don’t (Gm)steal, don’t cheat and don’t lie.

I know you got (Eb)moun tains to climb, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

When the dreams you’re dream in’ come to you,

when the (Gm)work you put in is real ized,

let your (Eb)self feel the pride, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Don’t ex pect a free ride from no one.

Don’t hold a (Gm7)grudge or a chip, and here’s why:

Bit ter ness When (Eb)keeps you from fly in’.

Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Know the dif f’rence be tween your sleep in’ with some one

vis and (Gm7)sleep in’ with ’ry some one you you love.

“I love you” It ain’t (Eb)no pick up ed time.

so al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Hold the door, say please, say thank you.

Don’t (Gm)steal, don’t cheat and don’t lie.

I know you got (Eb)moun tains to climb, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

When the dreams you’re dream in’ come to you,

when the (Gm)work you put in is real ized,

let your (Eb)self feel the pride, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Don’t ex (Bb)kind.

When it’s hot, eat a root beer pop si cle, shut off the A (Gm)C and roll the win dows down.

Let that (Ebmaj7)sum mer sun shine.

Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Don’t take for grant ed the love this life gives you.

When you get where you’re (Gm)go in’, don’t for get, turn back a round.

Help the (Ebmaj7)next one in line.

Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Humble And Kind" 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 138 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.
