If you hear a voice
in the mid dle of the night
say ing it will be all right,
it will be me.
If you feel a hand
guid ing you a long
when the path seems a wrong,
it will be me.
There is no moun tain
that I can’t climb.
cre For you I’d swim through the riv ers of time.
As you go your way
and I go mine,
a light will shine,
and it will be me.
If there is a key

If you need a friend,

to the hold you a gain.
It will be me.
Oh, how the world tain

cre at ing a love that the can not be shared.
As you go your way
and I go mine,
a light will shine,
and it will be me.
Past the ev er af ter,
(C)there’s a place for two.
In your tears and laugh ter,
(C)I’ll be there

In the sun and the moon,
in the land and the sea,
look a round you:
it will be me.
There is no moun tain
that I can’t climb.
For you I’d swim through the riv ers of time.
As you go your way
and I go mine,
a light will shine,
and it will be me.
It will be me.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "It Will Be Me" 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 74 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.
