How To Play "I'm Still Standing" For Piano: Elton John Piano Tutorial + Lyrics, Chord Progressions

#eltonjohn #pianotutorial #imstillstanding Elton John’s 1983 hit, “I’m Still Standing,” is my favorite song from the Rocket Man. I am not playing it in the original key. I’m playing it in A. If you’re following along with the video to try to learn the song, here are the chords: INTRO: Left hand should stay on A. The chords in the right hand are: Am, Dm7, E, F, G 2X VERSE: A, D/A, E/A, D/A, A … Bm7, A/D, E, F#m+5, D, A CHORUS: Am7, G7/B, C, Em, G6 … Dm, E7 And then the “I’m Still Standing” part: Am, Dm7, E7 BRIDGE: A … D, E, F#m, D6 … to the chorus The tempo to this song is faster than what I’m playing it. I’m guessing 110 BPM? Maybe my BPM radar is a little off. “I’m Still Standing” should definitely be a little faster than this. Lyrics to “I’m Still Standing” You could never know what it’s like Your blood like winter freezes just like ice And there’s a cold lonely light that shines from you You’ll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you useAnd did you think this fool could never win Well look at me, I’m coming back again I got a taste of love in a simple way And if you need to know while I’m still standing you just fade awayDon’t you know I’m still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I’m still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mindI’m still standing yeah yeah yeah I’m still standing yeah yeah yeahOnce I never could hope to win You starting down the road leaving me again The threats you made were meant to cut me down And if our love was just a circus you’d be a clown by nowYou know I’m still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I’m still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mindI’m still standing yeah yeah yeah I’m still standing yeah yeah yeahDon’t you know I’m still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I’m still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mindI’m still standing yeah yeah yeah I’m still standing yeah yeah yeahI’m still standing yeah yeah yeah I’m still standing yeah yeah yeah
