Chihiro (Easy version with lyrics and chords) Billie Eilish




















An easy piano transcription made by request.
Lyrics are always included in my sheet music, singing is good for health.
Remember that the notation system was not intended to represent the sound of modern pop music with its layered vocal, computer-generated sounds, and inflections of modern electronic instruments. My piano sheet music can only show you the score within the boundaries of the twelve-note scale and a metered rhythm; alas, the pitch and rhythm have little to do with the aesthetic value of the track. Listen to the song before practicing to fully imitate the beauty of the song: its *timbre, phrasing, inflections.* Play the song, not sheet music. Sing a phrase before playing it on your keyboard.
The track has a single melodic idea and it might be boring to play on keyboard. Imitate the soft vocal delivery by Billie Eilish or it won't sound as the song. The hand touch should be very light.
The composition lacks intervalic saturation thus its artistic meaning and expression suffer.
A predominant vocal style is *legato*.
_"Chihiro"_ is played with a swinged rhythm in quadruple time 12/8. Count 1-2-3-4 or TA-ta-ta TA-ta-ta TA-ta-ta TA-ta-ta. Practice slowly if you didn't memorize the track yet.
_"Chihiro"_ has a homophonic arrengement: the instrumental part provides a harmony to support the vocal but lacks its own melody. The main part of musical texture is walking bass and soft chords. I didn't add the bass, the left hand plays only chords.
_"Chihiro "_ is transcribed in the original *key,* E Major, and uses basic major and minor chords *E C G Am.*
Notice the ellipsis (omitted chords).
The aesthetic value of a melodic line is achieved through the use of repetition.
Of course I consider filling your *requests* of sheet music except for not popular tracks.
