Here?s how to play ?Take Me Home, Country Roads? by John Denver on piano!

With this easy piano sheet music, you can play ?Country Roads? on piano.

I created a more challenging arrangement as well - you can find it here: https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/21148082

This here is an easy piano arrangement in the song?s original key of A major. It comes with a seperate system for the singer, the full lyrics and chords.

However, the whole melody is included in the piano part as well, so it sounds great when played without any singing, too!

Of course, you can use these piano sheets to accompany someone as well, or sing along yourself!

In any case, it?s a ?Take Me Home, Country Roads? piano version which is not too hard to play, and sounds fantastic.

"Take Me Home, Country Roads" (also known as simply "Country Roads") first appeared on John Denver?s 1971 album "Poems, Prayers and Promises" and became one of his signature songs, as well as one of the most famous country songs of all time!

Time to play some country music on piano!

Here are the full lyrics to "Country Roads":

"Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
All my memories gather round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads"

With this sheet music, you can play "Hurt" by Johnny Cash on piano!

It's an accurate, carefully created piano arrangement of the full song.

The entire melody is included in the piano part, so it makes for a perfect instrumental / piano solo cover.

Of course, you can also use this piano arrangement to accompany a singer, or sing along yourself - this sheet music includes a system for the singer, as well as the song's full lyrics!

"Hurt" was written by Trent Reznor. He recorded it with his band Nine Inch Nails for their second studio album "The Downward Spiral" (released in 1994).

In 2002, the song was covered by the late Johnny Cash, and included on his last album "American IV: The Man Comes Around".

In February 2003, "Hurt" was released as the album's second single - just seven months before Johnny Cash passed away.

The accompanying music video won both a Grammy and a CMA Award for best video of the year, and was named the best video of all time by NME!

"Hurt" became one of Johnny Cash's most popular songs, with critics praising his deep voice, and the sincerity of his performance of Reznor's dark lyrics (which include references to self-harm and heroin addiction).

Trent Reznor was blown away by Johnny Cash's version of the song:

"I pop the video in, and wow... Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps... Wow. I felt like I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore... It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning ? different, but every bit as pure."

Needless to say, "Hurt" is a wonderful, emotional song to play on the piano!
