Lyrics

Ay, ay, ay, (D)ay.

Ooh, ooh, (G)ooh.

Ay, (Em7)ay.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, (G)ooh.

(D)Need less to say, I keep her in check.

She was all bad bad, nev er the less.

(G)Call ing it quits now, ba by, I’m a wreck.

Crash at my place, ba by, you’re a wreck.

(Em7)Need less to say, I’m keep ing her in check.

She was a bad bad, nev er the less.

(G)Call ing it quits now, ba by, I’m a wreck.

Crash at my place, ba by, you’re a wreck.

(D)Think ing in a bad way, los ing your grip.

Scream ing at my face, ba by, don’t trip.

(G)Some one took a big L, don’t know how that felt.

Look ing at you side ways, par ty on tilt.

(Em7)Ooh,

some things you just can’t re fuse.

She wan na (Gmaj7)ride like a cruise,

and I’m not tryin’ to lose.

Then you’re left in the dust un less I stuck by ya.

You’re the sun flow er.

I think your love would be too much, or you’ll be left in the dust un less I stuck by ya.

You’re the sun flow er,

you’re the sun flow er.

Ev ’ry time I’m leav ing on ya, you don’t make it eas y, no.

Wish I could be there for ya.

Give me a rea son to (Em7)go.

Ev ’ry time I’m walk ing out, I can hear you tell ing me to turn a round.

(G)Fight ing for my trust, no, you won’t back down, e ven if we got ta risk it all right now.

I know you’re scared of the un known,

you don’t wan na be a lone.

I know I al ways come and go,

but it’s out of my con trol.

Then you’ll be left in the dust un less I stuck by ya.

You’re the sun flow er.

I think your love would be too much, or you’ll be left in the dust un less I stuck by ya.

You’re the sun flow er,

you’re the sun flow er.

Sunflower — Classic Piano Sheet Music

10 people have learned this song

Read "Sunflower" by Post Malone & Swae Lee in classic piano notation — both hands, real chords + notes, in the published key of D. Engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML; click any note to jump there as the score follows along at 90 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build confidence with octave bass patterns in your left hand — at 90 BPM you have room to land each octave cleanly, but you'll need a relaxed wrist to avoid tension as the pattern repeats.

Your right hand cycles through five chords: C, D, Em7, G, and Gmaj7.

Pay special attention to the shift between G and Gmaj7 — the only difference is one note (F#), so train your fingers to make that small voice-leading move without reshuffling your whole hand.

The C chord can also catch you off guard since it sits outside the key of D; anticipate it rather than reacting late.

I'd suggest learning hands separately first, locking in that left-hand octave groove until it feels automatic, then layering in chords.

Once both hands are steady, loop the trickiest transition at half tempo before bringing it up to speed.

This is the song that'll make syncopated pop rhythms over a steady bass feel natural — a skill you'll use constantly from here on.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Sunflower" 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 D, 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 90 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.
