Mood : Happy Mood

Key : F Major


Dear YouTubers, Chill!!! Don't expect too much alright? =)

I'm not a Musician. Just a simple businessman selling real estate properties. I'm writing out of the best of my ability to educate you guys. Although I can never satisfy a 100% of you guys here, but I've received emails from at least 60% of those who learn from my tutorials, since the beginning, and they can play anything now. =) There's no Price Tag =p

This song is quite challenging to play because of the unique beat of the Accompaniment. But it's fun to play once you've figured it out. Enjoy the song!

Click HERE to view the video. You'll need it while reading a printed copy of this tutorial. The Right Hand is for your to find out with your ears. Learn how to do that from my older tutorials. Your Left Hand will automatically follow when you get a feel of the song.

Introduction :
Left Hand dances according to the Beat of the Song on F, A, D, Bb.

Okay, Coconut man, Moon Heads and Pea 
You ready 

Seems like everybody's got a price, 
I wonder how they sleep at night. 
When the sale comes first, 
And the truth comes second, 
Just stop, for a minute and 
Smile 

(Left Hand dances on F, A, D, Bb. Right Hand plays the Melody in Chords)

(Gets more intense, but just maintain the same beat and feeling. Left Hand danes on F, A, D, Bb. Right Hand plays the Melody in Chords) 

Okay! 
We need to take it back in time, 
When music made us all unite 
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes, 
Am I the only one getting tired 
Why is everybody so obsessed 
Money can't buy us happiness 
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now 
Guarantee we'll be feeling Alright.

So we aint gon stumble and fall never 
Waiting to see this in the sign of defeat uh uh 
So we gon keep everyone moving their feet 
So bring back the beat and then everyone sing

I dedicate this song to the person who responded to my Ringtone message below. Anyway, this song is actually pretty straightforward. The only challenge is the control of the beat on the Left Hand. When you're trying to play the Left Hand without the Right Hand, you will not have problem with the beat or tempo. But once the Right Hand comes it, you'll need lots of focus and coordination to put them both together. It's all about feeling, not skill. It's on B Major, which involve some black keys.

Introduction

[Hi, my name is Bob, and I approve this message]

Hit Octaves on low B for your Left Hand according to the tempo of the music. This is to prepare you as well as your listener in both speed and tempo of the music.


(Chorus: Rivers Cuomo)
I've got the magic in me
Everytime I touch that track it turns into gold
Everybody knows I've got the magic in me
When I hit the flow the girls come snappin' at me
Now everybody wants a burst of magic
(The Fundamental Chords for this entire song is B, E, G#, F#. You may add grace notes in between for instance B (Eb) E or B (Db) (Eb) E. Keep your Right Hand simple. Left Hand plays the main tempo of the music in the beginning part then move to Repeated Octaves towards the last phrase)


Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic(ahoo)
I've got the magic in me!
(Left Hand just dances on Octaves on B, E, G#, F# while Right Hand plays the melody)


(Verse One)
These tricks that I'll attempt will blow your mind
Pick a verse, any verse, I'll hypnotise you with every line
I'll need a volunteer, how about you, with the eyes?
Come on down to the front, and stand right here and don't be shy
I'll have you time-travellin', have your mind babblin'
People tryna inherit the skill so they askin' me
Even David Blaine had to go and take some classes, and
I see Mindfreak like, "What's up man, what's happenin'?"
So come one, come all, and see the show tonight
Prepare to be astounded, no Ghost or Poltergeist
You know I'm no Pinocchio, I've never told a lie
So call me Mr. Magic Man, I float on Cloud 9
(Here you freestyle for Right Hand. Left Hand on the main tempo on chords B, E, G#, F# with some dancing Octaves in between, according to the actual song)


(Chorus: Rivers Cuomo)
I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
Everytime I touch that track it turns into gold (Yes it turns to gold)
Everybody knows I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
When I hit the flow the girls come snappin' at me (They be snappin' baby)
Now everybody wants a burst of magic
(Back to Basics B, E, G#, F#. You may add grace notes in between for instance B (Eb) E or B (Db) (Eb) E. Keep your Right Hand simple. Left Hand plays the main tempo of the music in the beginning part then move to Repeated Octaves towards the last phrase)

Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic(ahoo)
I've got the magic in me!
(Left Hand just dances on Octaves on B, E, G#, F# while Right Hand plays the melody)


(Verse Two)
Well take a journey into my mind
You'll see why it's venom I rhyme
Stay on the road, so I call my mama when I got time
I hit the stage, go insane, then jump into that crowd
See, see, when I rhyme I flow on the beat like pidda-dow-dow
See I decieve you with my intergalactic ether
I sing just like Aretha, so respect me like I'm Caesar
I kick it like Adidas, flowin' sticky like adhesive
Be cautious, 'cause what I be on'll leave you with amnesia
I break all the rules like Evel Knievel
It's a spectacular show, 'cause my heart pumps diesel
So whatever you saying, it don't entertain my ego
I do this everyday, Hocus Pocus is my steelo
(Here you freestyle for Right Hand. Left Hand on the main tempo on chords B, E, G#, F# with some dancing Octaves in between, according to the actual song)


(Chorus: Rivers Cuomo)
I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
Everytime I touch that track it turns into gold (Yes it turns to gold)
Everybody knows I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
When I hit the flow the girls come snappin' at me (They be snappin' baby)
Now everybody wants a burst of magic
(Back to Fundamental B, E, G#, F#. You may add grace notes in between for instance B (Eb) E or B (Db) (Eb) E. Keep your Right Hand simple. Left Hand plays the main tempo of the music in the beginning part then move to Repeated Octaves towards the last phrase)


Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic(ahoo)
I've got the magic in me.
(ooh)
I've got the magic in me!
(Left Hand just dances on Octaves on B, E, G#, F# while Right Hand plays the melody)

Key : A Major

This song contains quite a substantial amount of Rap parts, which means, during those parts, you play the background music rather than following the lyrics. I personally find the most attractive feature in this song is the background music where you can hear a bit of the piano. The introduction of the song is pretty cool too with those echoing effects which can't be imitated on the piano. To learn the intro, you need to listen really carefully to the first notes that are played rather than getting confused with the echo or trails. The entire song is on chords F#, D, A simple huh?

Click HERE to watch my version, I did not play the echo. Just the notes.

Introduction
Listen to the first notes carefully, don't play the echo unless you're really fast. I'm not that fast. Chords are F#, D, A. Use chords for the Right Hand.

Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
(Left Hand dances on chord F#, D, A, if possible, shorter on D then jumps to A, like the actual song, it's not easy to do that. That means you play a very short D bass, then jumps to A. Right Hand plays the melody with chords)


Yeah
I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this
Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin'
And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
And when you're staring at that phone in your lap
And you hoping but them people never call you back
But that's just how the story unfolds
You get another hand soon after you fold
And when your plans unravel
And they sayin' what would you wish for
If you had one chance
So airplane airplane sorry I'm late
I'm on my way so don't close that gate
If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight
And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night
(The Rap Part, well, the first half of the rap part, the background is pretty simple, you just play the chords according to the drum beat of that part, while the second part has a very gentle piano as background played in tandem with the accompaniment of the song. The notes for this piano part are:

A, A, G#, G#, C#, E, F#, C# then A, A, B, B, C#, C#, B, A) - octaves



Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
(Left Hand dances on chord F#, D, A, if possible, shorter on D then jumps to A, like the actual song, it's not easy to do that. That means you play a very short D bass, then jumps to A. Right Hand plays the melody with chords)


Somebody take me back to the days
Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Yeah back when I was tryin' to get into the subway
And back when I was rappin' for the hell of it
But now a days we rappin' to stay relevant
I'm guessin that if we can make some wishes outta airplanes
Then maybe yo maybe I'll go back to the days
Before the politics that we call the rap game
And back when ain't nobody listened to my mix tape
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
But this is for the Cada, what's up Bobby Ray
So can I get a wish to end the politics
And get back to the music that started this sh-t
So here I stand and then again I say
I'm hopin' we can make some wishes outta airplanes
(The Rap Part, well, the first half of the rap part, the background is pretty simple, you just play the chords according to the drum beat of that part, while the second part has a very gentle piano as background played in tandem with the accompaniment of the song. The notes for this piano part are:

A, A, G#, G#, C#, E, F#, C# then A, A, B, B, C#, C#, B, A) - octaves



Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)

The version that I played is the Villains Remix rather than the Original Version. I did not play the Original Version earlier because I did not like the accompaniment which was a little repetitive and looping. But, it's still really nice. Just not that nice on the piano. Since the song was sung by more than one person, there will be some time where the melodies are mixed together, the lyrics part, which is impossible to play with just your Right Hand alone. Therefore, you have to choose which parts of the melody you want to prioritize to make the song sound full.

The entire song is in chords Eb, C, D, F.

PS: While I was recording the song, a housefly came to listen. I hope you can find it flying around in the video (Easter Egg).

Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cos they got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby

Here are the chords, just jump on them according to the remixxxxx
Eb (Eb, G, Bb, D)
C (C, Eb, G, D)
D (D, F, A, D)
F (F, A, C, optional D)
Right Hand just follow the lyrics


Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you
I know you feel where i'm coming from
Regardless of the things in my past that i've done
Most of really was for the hell of the fun
On the carousel so around I spun (spun)
With no directions just tryna get some (some)
Tryna chase skirts, living in the summer sun (sun)
This is how I lost more than I had ever won
And honestly I ended up with none
(Right Hand play the chords similar to the intro while Left Hand play the background chord on octaves, this is a RAP part)


There's no much nonsense
It's on my conscience
I'm thinking baby I should get it out
And I don't wanna sound redundant
But I was wondering if there was something that you wanna know
(that you wanna know)
But never mind that we should let it go (we should let it go)
Cos we don't wanna be a t.v episode (t.v episode)
And all the bad thoughts just let them go (go, go, go)
(Left Hand just dance on broken chords on chords Eb, C, D, F, while Right Hand move near to Left Hand to signify a lower pitched person singing, follow the melody of the lyrics)


Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cos they got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby

Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you
Hands down there will never be another one
I been around and I never seen another one
Look at your style they ain't really got nothing on
(This part is like a mixture of the Intro Beat as well as the Chorus, therefore, you try to jump twice on the Chord to create the jumping effects of the intro while playing the Broken Chords for the accompaniment. Refer to the video)


And you out and you ain't got nothing on
Baby you the whole package plus you pay your taxes
And you keep it real while them other stay plastic
You're my wonder women call me mr. fantastic
Stop.. now think about it
(Right Hand play the chords similar to the intro while Left Hand play the background chord on octaves, this is a RAP part)


I've been to london, i've been to paris
Even went out there to tokyo
Back home down in georgia to new orleans
But you always still to show (still to show)
And just like that girl you got me fro (got me fro)
Like a nintendo 64 (64)
If you never knew well now you know (know, know, know)
(Left Hand just dance on broken chords on chords Eb, C, D, F, while Right Hand move near to Left Hand to signify a lower pitched person singing, follow the melody of the lyrics)


Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothing on you baby

Nothing on you baby

Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you
Everywhere I go i'm always hearing your name (name, name)
And no matter where i'm at girl you make me wanna sing (sing)
Weather a bus or a plane or a car or a train
No other girls in my brain and you the one to blame
(This part is like a mixture of the Intro Beat as well as the Chorus, therefore, you try to jump twice on the Chord to create the jumping effects of the intro while playing the Broken Chords for the accompaniment)
