Lyrics

It’s a lit tle bit (Bbmaj7)fun ny

this feel ing in (Am)side;

I’m not one of (Dm)those who can

eas i ly (Bb)hide.

(F)But I don’t have much (C)mon ey, but, boy, if I (Dm)did,

I’d buy a big (Gm7)house where

we both could (Csus)live.

It’s If I were a (Bbmaj7)sculp tor,

but then a gain, (Am)no,

or man who makes (Dm)po in a

trav el in’ (Bb)show,

(F)But I know it’s not (C)much but it’s best I can (Dm)do.

My gift is my (Gm7)song and

we both could (Csus)live.

this one’s for (Bb)you.

And you can tell (Dm)ev ’ry bod y

this is your (Bb)song.

It may be (Dm)quite sim ple, but

now that it’s (Bb)done,

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in (Bb6)words

how (F)won der ful (Bb)life is while you’re in the (Csus)world.

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in (Bb6)words

how (F)won der ful (Bb)life is while you’re in the (F)world.

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in (Bb6)words

how (F)won der ful (Bb)life is while you’re in the (F)world.

About “Your Song”

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Your Song"?
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 Bb. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "Your Song" by Elton John played in?
Your Song is arranged in the key of Bb on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "Your Song"?
The arrangement plays at 128 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "Your Song" 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 "Your Song"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "Your Song"?
"Your Song" was originally performed by Elton John. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.
What other songs by Elton John can I play here?
Try "SOMEONE SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT", "CROCODILE ROCK", "BURN DOWN THE MISSION". 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 — "Your 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 Bb, 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 128 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.
