(C#5)Ba by, I’m not made of stone; it hurts.

(F#5)Lov ing you the way I do, it hurts.

Hold tight, it’s a sing a long.

I know you re mem ber me, five three in the back of the lav o ry.

You can least try and look at me.

Oh man, oh man, what a trag e dy, ha, ha.

Bang, bang, it was par a dise.

I chill, why we al ways had to roll the dice, la, la.

Heart beat in’ ir reg u lar.

Two seats in the back of the cin e ma, ha zy.

Ah yeah, you for get tin’ it and all the mad shit we did af ter that, cra zy.

Hurts is arranged in the key of C# on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Hurts" 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 105 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.
