  • This is my piano cover of this beautiful ballad written by Christine McVie for the Rumours album in 1977.
    I transcribed the sheet music of this song as it was recorded. You can download it for free on the link below. However, accurate transcriptions take me a huge effort, so if you think it is worth it you can help me by making a donation here:

    What sets this guy above all others here on TH-cam...is that he isn't playing the melody. He's playing it almost exactly as how Chrstine McVie played it. Go ahead--check it out. TH-cam is filled w/people either playing the Melody with the right hand....or worse yet, features someone (usually a female) who over-emotes when singing.
    This is one awesome cover!

      It's always better I think to learn to play songs as they are, as accompanimemt, without the melody line which makes it sound worse, I'm always looking for sheet music of songs in the original version, not simplified and without the vocal line.

    So beautiful! It makes me sad to think I will never get to see Christine sing and play it in person on her own piano..
    RIP Beautiful Songbird ❤

    [Verse 1]
    For you, there'll be no more crying
    For you, the sun will be shining
    And I feel that when I'm with you
    It's alright, I know it's right
    [Verse 2]
    To you, I'll give the world
    To you, I'll never be cold
    Cause I feel that when I'm with you
    It's alright, I know it's right
    [Chorus]
    And the songbirds are singing
    Like they know the score
    And I love you, I love you, I love you
    Like never before
    [Bridge]
    And I wish you all the love in the world
    But most of all, I wish it from myself
    [Chorus]
    And the songbirds keep singing
    Like they know the score
    And I love you, I love you, I love you
    Like never before, like never before

    Thank you for the sheet music, very good quality. I was happy to donate to support your work. I just wanted to let other people know that I downloaded it which is free and thought it was worthy of 5 dollars of my money (which converts to 3.99 in GBP and Paypal is available.). I have always hesitated when seeing sheet music available as I have been unsure how much it would cost, or my donation would be an insult! However this musicians talent is up front and worthy of support.

    • @davidsaintsgome
      @davidsaintsgome  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Fantastic thanks, ive made a donation. As a tiny suggestion, for beginners like me, it would really help to have the chord letters written above the staff. It would help rank amateurs like me know what position to get my hands in, and then just vamp around. Something to add in the mix. Anyway really appreciate your efforts and thanks so much. Keep up the good work.

    The only error i found in this is at the very end, last chord. Treble should be F major 2nd (G,A, and C), not the F major chord that you played. Could I suggest changing the tonic F to G and you'll have the exact ending sound as the original recording? Just trying to help to make it more original. :)
