This arrangement features an easy-to-follow reduction of our vocal and piano accompaniment arrangement with slight alterations to help with playability. If you want to add an extra layer of richness to your performance, grab a friend to play the Guitar chords (which are helpfully located above the melody). This heartfelt and emotional ballad is sure to leave you feeling inspired and moved, so grab your sheet music and get ready to make some beautiful music. Notes On the Sheet Music Melody The melody alters slightly on repeating for subsequent verses etc. These are notated using smaller bracketed note heads and should only be played/sung on the appropriate repeats. The decision was made to not notate the final chorus as sung however when performed/sung the final chorus could be ad-libbed to emulate the original should the performer desire. Structure The sheet music follows the structure of the song as heard in the recording. If the repeats are not obvious each section (Verse/PreChorus/Chorus) is marked by boxed texts for ease of navigation. Length One of my main aims in arranging popular titles is to make the effort to try and minimise the amount of pages required. As a Musician I hate having pages and pages of music that could have been condensed using repeats and other structure markings. This arrangement fully utilises these and this is part of the reason why the decision was made note to notate the final chorus as sung in the recording. Alternatives I also have an Voice, Piano, and Guitar Arrangement, which has the melody on its own staff with the guitar chords above with a simple piano accompaniment under neath. For the guitar players out there I have also made this into a lead sheet with just the melody, lyrics and chords.
