It Ends Tonight — Piano Lead Sheet
8 people have learned this song
"It Ends Tonight" lead sheet with chords, melody, and lyrics. Play the melody while following chord symbols above. Perfect for sing-along or accompaniment. Key of A, 90 BPM.
This arrangement is a fantastic workout for your chord vocabulary — eighteen different shapes including power chords, sus voicings, and seventh chords means your right hand will constantly be adjusting finger positions.
At 90 BPM the tempo is forgiving, so use that breathing room to land each new shape cleanly rather than rushing ahead.
Your left hand plays an octave bass pattern throughout, which keeps things steady but demands a comfortable stretch, so warm up that hand first.
I'd suggest learning the verse and chorus separately, hands alone, at around 60 BPM until the chord transitions — especially moving between Fmaj7, Csus2, and Gsus4 — feel automatic.
Those sus and seventh chords are where most students stumble, because the shapes are close to familiar major chords but not quite.
Nail those and you'll walk away with real confidence reading beyond basic triads, which pays off in everything you play next.
