My Happy Ending — Classic Piano Sheet Music
10 people have learned this song
Read "My Happy Ending" by Avril Lavigne in classic piano notation — both hands, real chords + notes, in the published key of B. Engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML; click any note to jump there as the score follows along at 100 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build comfort with suspended chords in a real musical context — you'll move between shapes like Asus4, Dsus2, and Gsus2 alongside their resolved forms, which trains your fingers to lift or place just one note at a time.
Your left hand keeps a steady block-bass pattern, so lock that in first at around 70 BPM before adding the right hand.
At 100 BPM the tempo is moderate, but watch the transitions into Bm and Gmaj7 — both require a quick hand position shift that can trip you up mid-phrase.
Loop those specific chord changes until they feel automatic.
Despite the upbeat pop energy, the mood is genuinely sad, so resist the urge to rush; lean into a steady, even pulse and let the emotion come from the harmony.
This is the piece that'll make sus-chord voicings second nature for you.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "My Happy Ending" 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 B, 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.
