Paper Roses — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial
Watch "Paper Roses" by Anita Bryant in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of C, 90 BPM.
Tip: Start at 50% speed to get comfortable with the fingering, then work your way up to full tempo.
Lyrics
I re al ize the way your eyes de (G7)ceived
me
with ten der looks that I mis took for (C)love;
so take a way the flow ers (C7)that you (F)gave
me
and (G7)send the kind that you re mind me (C)of.
Pa per (F)ros
es,
(G7)pa per (F)ros
(C)es,
(A)oh, how (Dm)real those ros es (G7)seem
to (C)be!
But they’re (F)on
ly
(B7)im i (Em)ta
tion
(A)like your (Dm)im i ta tion (G7)love
for
(C)me.
Your pret ty lips look warm and so ap (G7)peal
ing,
they seem to have the sweet ness of a (C)rose;
but when you give a kiss there (C7)is no (F)feel
ing,
it’s (G7)just a stiff and ar ti fi cial (C)pose.
Pa per (F)ros
es,
(G7)pa per (F)ros
(C)es,
(A)oh, how (Dm)real those ros es (G7)seem
to (C)be!
But they’re (F)on

tion
(A)like your (Dm)im i ta tion (G7)love
for
(C)me.
Your (C)me.
(A)Like your (Dm)im i ta tion (G7)love
