Lyrics

In Some times you look the same,

Thought just like you did be fore the ac ci dent.

(D)U su al ly I don’t pan ic.

I When you’re (G)star ing in to space

it’s hard to be lieve you don’t re mem ber it.

der Woke (D)did up e in ven think the am bu lance; you pieced (E)pieced it all to geth er on the drive.

And I know you don’t re mem ber call ing (C)me,

but I told you e ven then, you looked so (C)pret ty.

In a hos pi tal bed,

I re mem ber you said

you were scared;

and so was I.

What if it hap pened to you on a dif fer ent day?

On a bridge where there was n’t a rail in the way?

Or a neigh bor hood street where the lit tle kids play?

Or the An gel es Crest in the snow or the rain?

What if you weren’t a lone, there were kids in the car?

What if you were re mote, no one knows where you are?

If you changed an y thing would you not have sur vived?

You’re a live, you’re a live, you’re a live.

And I (G)know you don’t re mem ber call ing (C)me,

but I (G)told you e ven then, you looked so (C)pret ty.

In your hos pi tal bed,

I re mem ber you said

you were (A)scared;

and so am I.

The 30th — Visual Piano Sheet Music

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement sits in G major with a deceptively brisk 144 BPM, so your first move should be to slow it way down — try 90 BPM — and work hands separately until the chord shapes feel automatic under your left hand.

You'll be moving through open-position chords that sit naturally in G, but the tempo means your transitions need to be clean and anticipated; start shifting your left hand a beat early in your mind so you're never lunging for the next chord.

Your right hand carries a vocal melody with some syncopated rhythms that pull against the beat — tap the rhythm on a flat surface before adding pitch so your timing is internalized, not guessed at.

Watch for spots where the melody sustains while your left hand changes underneath; that's where things tend to fall apart, so loop those bars specifically.

Use the sustain pedal to connect chords but change it with each new harmony to avoid muddiness — listen for clean lifts.

Once both hands are comfortable alone, combine them in short four-bar phrases before stringing sections together.

This is a fantastic piece for building your ability to keep steady time while playing an expressive, floating melody on top — a skill that transfers to almost every pop song you'll learn next.
