Lyrics

(CN.C.)Is that all there is?

Is that all there is?

If that’s all there is my friends,

then let’s (C)keep (Fm9)danc ing.

(Fm)Let’s (Bb9)break out the booze

(Fm)and (Abm6)have

a (Ebmaj7)ball,

(Eb6)if that’s (D7)all

there (G7)is.

Is that all there is?

Is that all there is?

If that’s all there is my friends,

then let’s (C)keep (Fm9)danc ing.

(Fm)Let’s (Bb9)break out the booze

(Fm)and (Abm6)have

a (Ebmaj7)ball,

(Eb6)if that’s (D7)all

there (G7)is.

Is that all there is?

(CN.C.)Is that all there is?

Is that all there (C9)is?

If that’s all there is my friends,

then let’s (C)keep...

(CN.C.)“Is that all there is?” (D7)all

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a fantastic workout for navigating extended and altered chords — with 19 distinct chord shapes including Fm9, Bb9, C9, and Abm6, your left hand will get serious practice building voicings beyond basic triads.

At 100 BPM the tempo is conversational, not rushed, but watch the transitions between Abm6 and Bb or Ebmaj7 and D7 — those chromatic root movements can trip you up if you haven't mapped the fingering in advance.

I'd suggest starting hands-separate at about 70 BPM, focusing your left hand on just the chord changes until every shape feels automatic under your fingers.

Once you're comfortable, loop the trickiest four-bar phrases before playing end to end.

Pay attention to how the minor chords (Cm, Fm, Fm7) color the mood against the bright Bb sections — shaping that dynamic contrast with touch and pedal is what makes the performance feel energetic rather than flat.

This is the piece that'll lock in your comfort with ninth chords and jazzy voice leading, skills that transfer to everything you play next.

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 100 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.
