In this piano tutorial you can learn HOW TO PLAY "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri, BEGINNER version
🌟Original Song by Christina Perri:
• Christina Perri - A Th...
🌟English Lyrics:
Heart beats fast
Colours and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer
One step closer
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

I tried few online tutorials and they were great pianists, but your tutorials restored my hope to self-learn. Thank you for making tutorials slow and simple for beginners.

[@juliao8800]

I just got my keyboard last week and I even tried simply piano just they wanted me to pay for it I was so happy when I found this tutorial they're really helpful

when to visit family members, was bored, learned this song in a hour on their piano and played it for everyone after lunch. i have never touched a piano before this. i loved this tutorial.

I’ve been “learning piano” for about 2-4weeks now and your song tutorials really help I always nail these songs and my family is proud that I am good at it and it sounds like the song lol

Ive been doing this. But question? Its not the right way to play it right?

I absolutely love this. For someone who can't read music this helps so much. ♥️

[@LukmanIqbal]

I agree

[@penelope1830]

Ikr this is a big help

[@CristanMeijer]

How to position your hands: Put the thumb of you right hand on the C, your index finger on the D etc until all 5 fingers are on a white key. This will help a lot later in the song where you will encounter higher notes. For your left hand, put your right thumb on the G, the index finger on the F etc. (this leaves a gap of 2 notes between your hands) For this piece, this is actually kinda unhandy as you don't play notes that far to the left. It will be better for more complex songs later on, and you might as well get used to having it in the correct position.

[@jacquesboudreau6712]

Thank-you for the advice for someone like me who is beginning to learn the piano.

These tutorials shows me that slowly, step by step you can achieve very much. You starting from the very beginning, making A LOT of mistakes but at the end you are able to play an entire song

At the beginning I was making a few mistakes but now because of you I’m REALLY good at playing I hope I become a GREAT piano player like you❤❤❤

These are the keys: Intro: EEE DEF EEE DFFF CEE D Middle: CN←G CCC EDC CCC GFECA GFEDEBC CCC EDC CCC GFECA GFEDEBC C →A→B→C→B→ EGE EGE →AGDC EGE EGE →AGDC CDFEACC DCD FED Than you do the middle again mimic the first set of letters( CN←G) End: C F E D C E F F C F E D C E D C The arrows mean play up or down an octave. For the most part you are on the same letters but every know and then you go up or down. I hope that is helps someone.
