My Favorite Things Lyrics and Chords:

Emin+2
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Emin+2/C
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Amin7 D7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
G C F#min B7
These are a few of my favorite things!

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things!

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eye lashes
Silver white winters that melt into spring
These are a few of my favorite things!

Emin D
When the dog bites, when the bee stings
C Amin
When I'm feeling sad,
Amin
I simply remember
Cmin
my favorite things
G D G
and then I don't feel so bad!

THANKS.  I have been trying to learn this jazzy medley from Sakamichi no Apollon, and this helps a lot with the improv.

Wow u rule :) I can honestly say that u have some of the best piano tutorials on youtube. You make all of these songs so simple for those who understand how to play the piano but sound so awesome from the outside. Thanks :)

Thanks a lot, really. ^^ I'm a frustrated classical pianist. I got bored of classical and love jazz. This is just what I needed! :DDD

[TheGailmuldrow]

Thank you. It always seemed impossible for me to put this together in my head. You made the thing make since. I am such a dyslexic. ty!!!!

DOOD I LOVE HOW YOU BREAK IT DOWN AND EVERYTHING.  IM TRYING TO LEARN PIANO  AND YOUR HELPING.   i wish i was as good as you though  ):  ):

[E-Man]

I must thank you. From this I found the John Coltrane version. Then I found the Uyama Hiroto inspired version called Waltz for Life Will Born.

Great music. Warms my brain.

I'm here because of the inspirational anime: Kids on the Slope 坂道のアポロン, Sakamichi no Apollon. It's only 12 episodes and it is all about music. Check it out, yo!

7:16 can't get this part. How to play like this to have this lovely jazzy rhythm?

[Inyourfacepunk]

This is perfect for people who already know the basics of theory and people who are pretty dextrous on piano already.
Those who aren't shouldn't be playing this song.
So this is probably the easiest to follow tutorial I've ever seen on youtube. Thank you for this. Genuinely.

[Coverlove]

I think this is so helpfull giving a jazz style, it lets people get comfortable with the chords
