Lyrics

Through the look ing glass we go,

risk ing ev ’ry thing for (Bbm)what might be,

all the things you used to know

when your heart was young e (Bbm)nough to see,

(Fm)through your own re flec tion, (Db)past your im per fec tion.

(Eb)so in tim i dat ing.

(Gb)No more (Eb)hes i tat ing.

Through the look ing glass we go,

where the world is in re verse

and the end ing al ways (Eb)starts a new be gin ning.

Through the mir ror, e ven though

things might go from bad to worse,

close your eyes, let go and learn

to be lieve

so we can (CN.C.)pass

through the look ing (Absus4)glass.

Here we (Dbmaj7)come, so clear the (Eb)deck.

Bombs a (Dbmaj7)way and then look (Bbm)out be low.

Bombs a way, look out be low.

I am such a nerv ous (Eb)wreck.

Don’t know (Dbmaj7)up from down or (Bbm)friend from foe.

(Fm)Fear will make you brav er, (Db)brave e nough to save her.

(Eb)All of you and me then… (Gb)Get set: (Eb)One, two, three, and…

Through the look ing glass we go,

where the front is al ways back

and what’s left is right and (Eb)some times wrong is right er.

Through the mir ror, e ven though

night is day and white is black,

as my cra zy life be gins to ap proach

crit i cal (CN.C.)mass…

Through the look ing (B)Strange but true,

(C#m7)some thing’s chang ing deep in side me, (E)break ing (B)through,

(C#m7)wak ing what’s a sleep in side me.

(G)All at (D)once,

(Csus2)I know where it is I’m go ing to,

and what to (F#7sus4)do.

Through the look ing glass we go

towards the op po site of me,

where clock Yeah.

er’s ho urs (E)all run coun ter clock wise.

Through the look ing glass we go,

through the night mares in our way.

Through the mir ror we all (C)go…

Through the look ing glass!

You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature Db, 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 60 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.
