Five Friend Songs

Best Friend II Buy From Art.com

"Friends not only fill our lives with joy by surrounding us with their warm fellowship, but also help our feet from slipping during horrendous storms in life. Certain Bible verses on friendship remind us of how important and valuable good friends are! Moreover, with God as the center of our friendship, we know that no misunderstanding, envy or pride can break our friendship. When we give our God the central position in our lives and our relationships, He will honor and guard them for us!"

Our grandson is almost 5 now and he is a very friendly lad. We were listening to this song the other day, Friend Song. It's great for character building in regards to being a good friend. No, I don't have the chords to this one but it sure is cute!


1. Friend Song

I’m your friend, you’re my friend
We’ll stick together until the end
We’re caring, we’re sharing
Respecting, connecting
I believe in you, you believe in me
Showing loyalty and honesty
We share our history, nothing’s a mystery
We both have the key to reach our dreams
I’m your friend, you’re my friend
This friendship lasts forever
There’s so much more to me than how I look, you see
Get, get to know me, look in my heart and see
And when you see me for the real me
I know that we could be friends forever
And I know, yes I know
I’m not alone, I’m not alone
We got each other, we got each other
I know that we could be friends forever
I’m your friend, you’re my friend
This friendship lasts forever

We are magic, he said
But don't let it all go to your head
'Cause I bet if you had it all figured out
Then you'd never get out of bed
Well, no doubt
Of all the thing's that I've read what he wrote me
Is now sounding like the man I was hoping to be
I keep on keeping it real
'Cause it keeps getting easier, you'll see

He's the reason that I'm laughing
Even if there's no one else
He said you've got to love yourself

He said you shouldn't mumble when you speak
But keep your tongue up in your cheek
And if you stumble on to something better
Remember that it's humble that you seek
You got all the skill you need
Individuality
You got something
Call it gumption, call it anything you want

Because when you play the fool now
You're only fooling everyone else
You're learning to love yourself

There's no price to pay
When you give it what you take
That's why it's easy to thank you

Let's say take a break from our day
And get back to the old garage
Because life's too short anyway
But at least it's better than average
As long as you got me and I got you
You know we got a lot to go around
I'll be your friend, your other brother
Another love to come and comfort you

And I'll keep reminding
If it's the only thing I ever do
I will always love you

It's true, our love is true
It's you I love, it's you I love, it's you, it's you I love
It's true, our love is true, our love is true, it's you I love
It's you I love, it's you I love, it's you, it's you I love

Climb up over the top
Survey the state of the soul
You've got to find out for yourself
Whether or not you're truly trying
Why not give it a shot?
Shake it, take control
Inevitably wind up finding for yourself
All the strengths that you have inside still rising
(All the strengths that you have inside of you)

3. James Taylor: You've Got A Friend

This is one of my favorite all-time songs from a great musician. It is such a laid-back, easy going groove, with lyrics that melt your heart. I blogged about it awhile back and posted the chord chart, here. Here's yours truly playing another song by James Taylor, Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight on a small Yamaha keyboard I use for my students.

• How To Play: We Fall Down (Chris Tomlin)

What If There Isn't A Transpose Button?

Suppose you're the new keyboard player in the band. This rock band just hired you and welcomed you aboard. Now, you're going to your first gig tonight. You arrive excitedly, greet the other musicians and begin to look over the music set. Most of the songs you do know but there's a few complex ones that change keys several times. No worries because your keyboard has a transpose button so you will just press it a few times. On this special night you soon discover that there isn't a transpose button. Now what are you going to do?

If you have found yourself in this same scenario as I have before, you are faced with a few choices.

1. Learn how to modulate; change keys within the song.
2. Play the first song in the original key. Lay out on the chord that sets up the next key. Jump back in with the new key.
3. Just play through the song once and lay out all together while the rest of the musicians play.

The chances of you actually performing at a live gig, playing a fast, lively song that changes keys several times, like the ones by Israel Houghton and then reaching for the transpose button and clicking away, yet remaining in the groove can cause a train wreck and mess up the other musicians.
The answers to learning how to modulate on your own can be found in learning the Circle of Fifths and using the Number System. Here are a few tips to help you on your way to transposition or simply stated, moving a piece of music from one key to another.

1. Know the scale of the original key.
2. Number each note of the melody by the numbers of the scale.
3. Review the scale of the new key, finding the numbers (degrees) associated with the notes and reconstruct the melody.

The same formula is true with transposing a chord progression. Let's say the original key is C Major and we're playing I chord (C) and the IV chord F. The singer chooses to modulate to the Key of Eb to fit her voice range better and cause a dynamic move in the song. With the same previous steps for changing the melody line, we will now apply to the new key. In the Key of Eb, we play I chord (Eb) and the IV chord (Ab).

Going back to our opening scenario, you will need to know HOW to arrive at the new key and that is called Modulation. Forget that button on your keyboard and discover the solution by learning these easy steps.

To begin, let's say we are starting in the Key of F and we want to move up a half step. Here's what you need to know.

1. A dominant chord is built on the fifth degree of the scale.
2. The most direct movement is from the dominant chord to the tonic chord.
3. This is known as the V-I progression.
4. A dominant seventh chord may also be used, and this is called a V7-I progression.

Now you're ready for your new gig. It's a new day. The band starts a particular song in the Key of F Major. Now to move to F# Major, you are playing the dominant chord (V) of the New Key to set up the new change and that chord would be C# and you begin anew in the key of F# with I chord. Congratulations "smooth modulator."

Sheet Music (one page) to Again I Say Rejoice
http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/mtd.asp?ppn=MN0052477&mnuid=TJS3ZQZ6RJ62N728YZC7G733Z3MVBL5708KWJ3M7 
I wrote a section on rhythm for beginner students at the piano called Rhythm in Music:


Different kinds of notes are used to make rhythm in music. Some notes are short, while others are held for a longer time. Another way to put it, music has a pattern of short and long tones. The combination of these tones written in notes is called rhythm. Here are some music notes to learn.
Quarter Note = 1 count
A quarter note is all black with a stem on it either going up or down. I call it our “stepping” note because the note just steps and moves along. With 4/4 time, you would have a measure of 4 quarter notes because one quarter note gets 1 count. Remember music and math go together.

Half Note = 2 counts 

A half note is all white with a stem on it. When playing this kind of note you would pause, like coming to a yellow traffic light. You would play a half note, counting 1 & 2 &. With 4/4 time, you would have 2 half notes in a measure to play because 2 + 2 = 4. Remember music and math go together!

If you are not sure what a measure in written music is, always remember that the notes placed between bar lines is a measure. Bar lines divide music into measures. When looking at a piece of music, go to the very end of a song and there you will find a double bar line.

Repeat Dots (Repeat Sign)

The two dots at the end of the piece are a repeat sign, meaning to play the song from the beginning. Sometimes my students ask, “Oh, do I have to?” The answer is “yes” because the composer intended for that section of music to be played again! Another way to look at it is that you won’t have more pages to turn. Just play the first page again or perhaps it will be just a few lines repeated. The repeat sign is a very valuable sign indeed.

Whole Note = 4 counts
A whole note is a white note, too but it does not have a stem on it. I call it our doughnut note. Some of my students call it a “hamburger” note! When you see a whole note, you must hold the note down and count, 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &. It’s just like coming to a red light and making a full stop.

Dotted Half Note = 3 counts

A dot after a note adds half the value of the note. So, you now have 2 + 1 = 3 beats. You hold the note down and count, 1 & 2 & 3 &.

Now, the cool thing is that every type of music note has a corresponding rest. A rest sign means “don’t play” like a rest area. Sometimes it means get your hand ready in position and move up, yet still do not play a note, just rest! Examples of some rests are:

Quarter Rest
It looks like a “Z” and a quarter rest gets 1 count.

Half Rest
It looks like a black top hat. A half rest gets 2 counts or beats of silence. A half rest sits above the third line.

Whole Rest
Looks like an upside down black top hat. The whole rest hangs below the fourth line. It gets 4 counts or beats of silence.

Each measure in 4/4 time has notes and rests adding up to 4 counts.

Time Signature

The time signature is the two numbers written at the beginning of a piece. The top number tells how many beats are in each measure. The bottom number tells what kind of note gets one beat.

2 means two beats in each measure
4 means the quarter note receives one beat or count.

3 means three beats in each measure.
4 means the quarter note gets one beat.

4 means four beats in each measure
4 means the quarter note gets one beat.

Practice Directions


1. Clap and count the rhythm aloud.
2. Play and say the name of notes aloud.
3. Play and count the rhythm aloud.

A great music that I recommend for chord study that is an audio course:

Here I Am To Worship by Tim Hughes- Israel and New Breed and Hillsong

Today was a good day at the Biker Church. People love to worship. I enjoy hearing the sound of a Harley coming through the parking lot, right up to the church doors. Beautiful bikes today.

Israel Houghton- No Limits

Image via Wikipedia

Israel Houghton (pronounced, ho-tin [ho as in hope])is a two time Grammy Award winning, Christian worship leader and singer, mostly known for his cross-cultural style of Christian music that fuses elements from Gospel music, Jazz and Rock. Houghton is usually credited as Israel & New Breed and currently signed to Integrity Music. Houghton is also a worship leader at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church in Houston, TX.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Houghton
I discovered that Israel was born in Oceanside, California in 1971. Wow, it really is a small world because my church is in Oceanside and that's where I play music when I'm able to make it and do worship with the team... here is the video and chords to this song that is easy to play for the beginner piano player.
