Mov ing on

are not the same it seems to me.

’Cause you been gone, since I I’m grow ing old er but I (E)still (A)can’t (E)seem to get (A)you (E)off my (A)mind.

And I (E)do (A)be (E)lieve I feel (A)you (E)all the (A)time.

Mov ing on

and get ting o ver

and not the friends they used to be.

It’s been so long since I I’m grow ing hold you but I (E)still (A)can’t (E)seem to get (A)you (E)off my (A)mind.

And I (E)do (A)be (E)lieve I feel (A)you (E)all the (A)time.

Tell me I can have the fact you loved me to hold on to.

Tell me I can keep the door cracked o pen to let light through.

For (A)all my run ning, I (G#m)can’t (A)un der stand,

I’m one (A)text a way from (B)be ing back a gain.

But I’m mov (F#m9)ing on

and I’m get ting on,

I’m a get ting on,

I’m get ting o ver,

I’ve got to get o ver.

Mov ing on

and get ting o ver.

It’s been so long, it just goes to show you that I (E)still (A)can’t (E)seem to get (A)you (E)off my (A)mind.

And I (E)sure (A)would (E)like to see (A)you (E)one more time.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

Do do do do do.

It’s tak en me (F#m9)so long

just to say, (B)“so long,”

and may be it’s (F#m9)so long, but I’m mov ing on.

I’m gon na get a (F#m9)new girl,

there’s some thing I can (B)do, girl,

to try to get me (F#m9)through, girl, ’cause I’m mov ing on.

I’m mov ing on, and I’m mov ing on.

I’m mov ing (F#m9)on,

and I’m mov ing on.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?

You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature E, 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 93 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.
