Lyrics

A Af ter twelve; but not so well.

Won’t pre tend it’s too soon to (Dm7)tell lence what’s ’round this bend.

A No dis grace; a bout face, an y thing ber not to have to (Dm7)chase you down a gain.

You know, (Bbmaj7)noth ing hurts like (Am7)los ing when you (Dm7)know it’s al real ly (Am)gone, ex cept (Bb)for the pain of (Am)choos ing to hold too long.

I tried it (F)your way,

but I got (C)noth ing to show.

It’s been the (Gm7)same same,

and the (F)sto ry’s get ting old.

So I guess the (F)drive way

will be the (C)end of the road.

For us it’s (Gm7)too late;

let the (F)cred its start to (C)roll.

A lot to say, but not to day.

Let the ra di o break the (Dm7)si lence what’s as we drive.

A kiss good bye?

Not this time.

Don’t re mem ber what a bout this (Dm7)song I ev er liked.

You know, (Bbmaj7)noth ing hurts like (Am7)los ing when you (Dm7)know I’m al read y (Am)gone, ex cept (Bb)for the pain of (Am)choos ing to hold too long.

I tried it (F)your way,

but I got (C)noth ing to show.

It’s been the (Gm7)same same,

and the (F)sto ry’s get ting old.

So I guess the (F)drive way

will be the (C)end of the road.

For us it’s (Gm7)too late;

let the (F)cred its start to (C)roll.

I thought may be we were (Am)get ting some where, but we’re still (Am)no where at all.

I watch your (Am)tail lights fad ing; I try, but a tear won’t fall.

I re mem ber what it (Am)feels like to know (Dm)love and have it (Am)tak en a way.

Can’t think of what I (Am)learned right now, but I’ll be (C5)thank ing you some (C7)day, yeah.

I tried it

About “The Driveway”

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "The Driveway"?
Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature F. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "The Driveway" by Miley Cyrus played in?
The Driveway is arranged in the key of F on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "The Driveway"?
The arrangement plays at 154 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "The Driveway" easy to play on piano?
Yes — this is one of our beginner-friendly arrangements with simplified chords and color-coded notes.
Can I download sheet music for "The Driveway"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "The Driveway"?
"The Driveway" was originally performed by Miley Cyrus. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.
What other songs by Miley Cyrus can I play here?
Try "I THOUGHT I LOST YOU", "7 THINGS", "THESE FOUR WALLS". All are in our player with color-coded notes; pick the one matching your level.
Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "The Driveway" 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 F, 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 154 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.
