Lyrics

I knew you be fore.

Took a life time to for (Ab)get,

but as my eyes meet (Ab)yours,

I take

all

I can get.

They (Dbmaj9)light

up the (Eb)shad ows

of my (Fm7)heart,

re turn (Eb)stol en works of (Dbmaj9)art.

Yet (Eb)you can’t dis cern this (Gb)mo ment’s

grace.

But I

still re (Db6)mem ber you

in that big old white Sub ur ban;

and though you (Db)look right past (Db)me with dis re gard,

the (Bb7sus)first

won’t (Dbsus2)hap

pen (Fm)twice.

My gaze shifts to the (Abmaj7)ground.

More a lone than I was (Abmaj7)then.

I have searched (Ab)your eyes,

but (Gb)they don’t com pre hend.

I (Dbmaj9)crawl back in to the (Eb)shad ows

of my (Fm7)heart,

and just (Eb)sit there in the (Dbmaj9)dark,

where you don’t re quite the (Gb)love you (Bbm)still (Fb)take.

But (Ab)I

still re (Dbmaj7)mem ber you

in that big old white Sub ur ban.

And though you (Db)look right past (Db)me with dis re gard,

and al though I’ve (Db)since moved on,

and I’ve been in love a few times,

there’s still a (Db)piece of me (Db)that holds on to you.

’Cause the (Bb7sus)first

won’t (Dbsus2)hap

pen (Fm)twice,

it (Abmaj7)won’t hap pen twice,

it (Ab5)won’t (G5)hap pen twice.

Ooh,

I re (Db6/9)mem ber you

in that big old white Sub ur ban.

And al though you (Dbmaj7)look right past me with

dis re gard,

and al though I’ve (Dbmaj9)since moved on,

and I’ve been in love a few times,

there’s still a (Db)piece of me

(Db)that can’t let go of you.

’Cause the (Bb7sus)first

won’t

hap pen

twice.

About “White Suburban

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "White Suburban"?
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 Db. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "White Suburban" by Skylar Grey played in?
White Suburban is arranged in the key of Db on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.

Is "White Suburban" easy to play on piano?
This is a medium-difficulty arrangement. Most players can learn it within a few practice sessions using the speed control.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "White Suburban" 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 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 72 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.
