I was down, but now I rise, was still but now I’m swift.
A lert my ears, a wake my eyes;
I was dead but now I live.
My feet were cold but now they walk, the haze a round me lifts,
my si lent throat now clears to talk,
“I was dead but now I live!”
It
was so brown
in that dark,
damp
ground,
Time
moved as slow
as a snail.
Noth
ing to see
and with out
a
sound,
I
could n’t wait
to ex hale.
Aah!
I was gone, but now I’m back, how love ly to ex ist!
My heart a gain is beat ing hard:
I was dead but now I live!

About “The Zombie Song”
- Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "The Zombie Song"?

- The Zombie Song is arranged in the key of C on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "The Zombie Song" 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 C, 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 92 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.
