I bought this as a gift for a loved one but I myself found it very helpful in learning the music. The sheet music includes all the notes but you should know that this app is only good for kids that can read music, because they're the ones that will be using it the most.

Lyrics


Pass me that lovely little gun
My dear, my darling one
The cleaners are coming, one by one
You don't even want to let them start
They're knocking now upon your door
They measure the room, they know the score
They're mopping up the butcher's floor
Of your broken little hearts
Forgive us now for what we've done
It started out as a bit of fun
Here, take these before we run away
The keys to the gulag
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on
Here comes Frank and poor old Jim
They're gathering round with all my friends
We're older now, and the light is dim
And you are only just beginning
Oh, children
We have the answer to all your fears
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal-clear
It's roundabout and it's somewhere here
Lost amongst our winnings
The cleaners have done their job on you
They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove
They've hosed you down, you're good as new
And they're lining up to inspect you
Oh children
Poor old Jim's white as a ghost
He's found the answer that we lost
We're all weeping now, weeping because
There ain't nothing we can do to protect you
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
And the train ain't even left the station
And have you left a seat for me?
Is that such a stretch of the imagination?
I'm hanging in there, don't you see?
In this process of elimination
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun (children)
It's beyond my wildest expectation (oh, children)
We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
The train ain't even left the station (oh, children)
(Hey, little train, wait for me)
(I once was blind but now I see)
Ever wondered if you can play "O Children" by Nick Cave in a different key? Here's the lowdown: Search for the little notes symbol chillin' at the bottom of the sheet music. If it's lighting up in bright white, it's your cue to give it a click. This cool feature lets you mess around with the song's key, shifting it up or down by about 3 semitones from its starting point.

Now, if you're thinking of getting your hands on the music, here's the deal: when you make that purchase, it's gonna land in your library in the original key. So, after you've made it yours, don't forget to swing by the admin area if you're feeling like tweaking the key to your taste.

Oh, and a quick heads up on why buying licensed digital sheet music rocks:
1. Quality Assurance: You're getting the real deal, not some half-baked version. You can trust the notes to be on point.
2. Easy Access: Whether you're on your tablet, phone, or computer, your music is just a tap away.
3. Eco-Friendly: Save trees, skip the print! Plus, with digital, you can zoom, highlight, and make notes without messing up the original.
4. Share and Play Anywhere: Headed to a jam session or choir practice? You've got your music with you, always.

Happy playing!
