Ba by girl was liv ing life for the feel ing, but I don’t (Fmaj7)mind,

And all the wrongs she com mit ted,

she was numb, and she was so co de pend ent.

She was young, and all she had to was the cit y, but I don’t (Fmaj7)mind,

I don’t mind.

And I know

that she’s ca pa ble of (Em7)an y thing: it’s riv et ing.

But when

you wake up (Fmaj7)she’s al (C)ways (Dm7)gone, gone, (F)gone,

oh.

In the night she’s danc ing to re lieve the pain.

She’ll nev er walk a way.

(I don’t think you un der (Am)stand.) In the night when she comes crawl ing, dol lar bills and tears keep fall ing down her face.

She’ll nev er walk a way.

In The Night — Classic Piano Sheet Music

7 people have learned this song

Read "In The Night" by The Weeknd in classic piano notation — both hands, real chords + notes, in the published key of A. Engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML; click any note to jump there as the score follows along at 112 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build fluency with minor-key chord shapes — your right hand will cycle through Am, Dm7, Em7, and Fmaj7 quite a bit, so getting comfortable stretching into those seventh voicings early will pay off.

Your left hand holds a pedal bass pattern, meaning you'll anchor on one note while the right hand moves through changes above it; keep that left hand relaxed and steady so it doesn't drift in volume.

At 112 BPM the tempo has a gentle push, but watch the transition from Fmaj7 to G — that's where most students hesitate because the hand shifts position quickly.

I'd suggest learning the chord progression hands-separate first, then loop just that Fmaj7–G–Am turnaround at half speed until it feels automatic.

Once you can land those changes without looking down, bring both hands together and gradually nudge the tempo up.

This is the piece that'll lock in your minor seventh shapes so solidly you'll recognize them instantly in dozens of other songs.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "In The Night" 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 A, 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 112 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.
