(Available in PIANO!)
Mood : Playful Mood
Key : Bb Major
This is a highly difficult song to play although it looks kinda easy. The difficult part is actually the coordination between the Left and Right Hand. When you listen to the actual song, you'll notice that there's a certain unique beat for the Left Hand that formed almost the entire song. If you couldn't play that beat, the song will sound very different.

Introduction :
Bb D repeatedly then Bb C repeatedly
You think I'm pretty
Without any make-up on
You think I'm funny
When I tell the puch line wrong
I know you get me
So I'll let my walls come down, down
(Keeping the introduction Left Hand style, Right Hand plays the melody simple)
Before you met me
I was a wreck
But things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my valentine, valentine
(Left Hand goes an octave lower play on Eb then F, Right Hand plays the melody slightly chorded)
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever
(Moving towards Chorus. Play this part Gracefully both Left and Right Hands. Chords are Eb then F) - towards chorus, Right Hand moves an octave higher!
You make me
Feel like
I'm living a Teenage Dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's runaway
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
(Right Hand has to be chorded because it's pretty high up there. Or else there will be no impact at all. Now the difficult part, Left Hand plays the chords Eb then to F via G according to the beat in the song)
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance
And don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
(Right Hand has to be chorded because it's pretty high up there. Or else there will be no impact at all. Now the difficult part, Left Hand plays the chords Eb then to F via G according to the beat in the song)
We drove to Cali
And got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and
Built a fort out of sheets
I finally found you
My missing puzzle piece
I'm complete
(Back to Original Left Hand on Eb then F, Right Hand plays the melody slightly chorded)
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I
We'll be young forever

In my skin-tight jeans
