A# G#
C# D#
You know I left a part of me back in New York
You knew the hero died so what's the movie for?
You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
You knew the password so I let you in the door
You knew you won so what's the point of keeping score?
You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
But what you did was just as dark
1 octave lower
A# G#
C# D#
Darling, this was just as hard
As when they pulled me apart
G# C#
D# G#
My only one
My kingdom come undone
My broken drum
You have beaten my heart
F# A#
D# G#
Don't want no other shade of blue but you
No other sadness in the world would do
C# A#
D# G#
F A#

love this! i literally never played the piano, but as soon as i heard taylor's new album i knew i had to try to learn hoax and exile, so here i am. and i managed to play this song bc of your tutorial, so thank you so much!!

[@EmmaMMusic]

Oh wow!! That's incredible. You must some hidden talent to have been able to pick it up so easily, because these definitely aren't the simplest songs to play

[@beatrizkacelnik2140]

Emma Matthews im still trying to figure out exile lol but thank you 🥰

My only one
My smoking gun
My eclipsed sun
This has broken me down
My twisted knife
My sleepless night
My win-less fight
This has frozen my ground
Stood on the cliffside
Screaming, "Give me a reason"
Your faithless love's the only hoax
I believe in
Don't want no other shade of blue
But you
No other sadness in the world would do
My best laid plan
Your sleight of hand
My barren land
I am ash from your fire
Stood on the cliffside
Screaming "Give me a reason"
Your faithless love's the only hoax
I believe in
Don't want no other shade of blue
But you
No other sadness in the world would do
You know I left a part of me back in New York
You knew the hero died, so what's the movie for?
You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
You knew the password, so I let you in the door
You knew you won, so what's the point of keeping score?
You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
From when they pulled me apart
But what you did was just as dark
Darling, this was just as hard
As when they pulled me apart
My only one
My kingdom come undone
My broken drum
You have beaten my heart
Don't want no other shade of blue
But you
No other sadness in the world would do

I’m 12, and play the piano and am a huge Taylor Swift fan as well. Hoax is one of my favorite songs, and this was the only good tutorial I could fine! It was super helpful, thank you!! 😊

[@elenacarrara4780]

I literally learnt how to play piano through your tutorials, thank you so much for this:))

[@EmmaMMusic]

This is so incredibly surreal to hear!! I definitely didnt realise that would be possible

[@TheSecretkay]

Been wanting to learn this for awhile but was a little intimidated since I’m a complete beginner. Proud of myself bc I got through the verse. Thanks for this. It really helped. Looking forward to learn the whole song

[@EmmaMMusic]

Amazing! It's a really difficult song because of all the little intricate melodies, but once you get the hang of it it's beautiful to play

[@juliannamcguirl3962]

Love this too!!! Ahh these are great. Starting to get in the groove of them as I listen to the songs more as well. Could you possibly do Seven??? That’s my favorite on this album. Keep up the good work it’s so helpful!

[@EmmaMMusic]

Thank you!! yes, i will definitely be doing seven, it's my favourite too :)

[@eabhacrehan6189]

[@cynthiaromero5719]

You should do “Whispers and 1120” of Halsey's new álbum

[@bubble3771]

This is great! Thank you so much for making this! :)))
sometimes it's a little fast tho, or it gets complecated when you play something before you explained it, but apart from that it's very helpful!

[@ayafar1478]
