    Side Notes:

    Helpul Hints:

    You've probably never played a song like this before.


    It will have you playing with your forearms, for one
    thing. That's one reason it's called "All of Me."

    Again the numbers in the first section are for the rhythm impaired.
    As in "Morning Light," I am inviting you to count 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
    rather than 1 &2 & 3 & 4 &.
    The rhythm gets much easier at measure 31. (You may start there
    if you wish.)
    Don't let five flats scare you. It's easy when you think of C and F
    as your only white keys. Just lean to the left black key on everything (except C and F, but they don't have black keys to lean to
    anyway)
    Level of difficutly: seventh easiest in the book (out of seven, ha ha)

    [Fav: n.(fav)

    Sut is a life-long buddy whose encouragement was a key factor as I was writing this song.

    Using the accents gives this part rhyme and reason.


    (But get the underlying rhythm in your head first.)
