Here\'s how to play the famous English football anthem \"Three Lions\" on piano!

With this piano sheet music, you can play \"Three Lions (Football\'s Coming Home)\" on piano.
The full melody is included in the piano part, so it sounds great if it\'s just played instrumentally - but of course, you can use these sheets to accompany singers, or sing along yourself!

It\'s an accurate piano arrangement of \"Three Lions\" which is not too hard to play, and sounds fantastic.

\"Three Lions\" was recorded by The Lightning Seeds (whose lead singer Ian Broudie composed the music) and the comedians Frank Skinner and David Baddiel (who wrote the song\'s lyrics).

\"Three Lions (Football\'s Coming Home)\" came out in 1996, when the UEFA European Football Championship (\"Euro 96\") took place in England.
The lyrics (and title) refer to the three lions on the Royal Arms of England, which also appear on the England football team\'s emblem.

The chorus (\"Football\'s coming home\") can regularly be heard as a chant at English football matches.

\"Three Lions\" makes for a surprisingly good piano cover!

Here are the song\'s full lyrics:

It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home (We\'ll go on getting bad results)
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home

[Verse 1: Frank Skinner]
Everyone seems to know the score, they\'ve seen it all before
They just know, they\'re so sure
That England\'s gonna throw it away, gonna blow it away
But I know they can play, \'cause I remember

[Chorus: All]
Three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming

[Verse 2: David Baddiel]
So many jokes, so many sneers
But all those \"Oh, so nears\", wear you down through the years
But I still see that tackle by Moore and when Lineker scored
Bobby belting the ball, and Nobby dancing

[Chorus: All]
Three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming

[Bridge]
England have done it, in the last minute of extra time!
What a save, Gordon Banks!
Good old England, England that couldn\'t play football!
England have got it in the bag!
I know that was then, but it could be again

[Refrain]
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home
(England have done it)
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home
It\'s coming home, it\'s coming home, it\'s coming
Football\'s coming home

[Chorus]
(It\'s coming home) Three lions on a shirt
(It\'s coming home, it\'s coming) Jules Rimet still gleaming
(Football\'s coming home
It\'s coming home) Thirty years of hurt
(It\'s coming home, it\'s coming) Never stopped me dreaming
(Football\'s coming home

This arrangement is part of a series I amproducing which will allow gatherings of guitarists of all levels to playtogether. As a guitarist and guitar teacher, I?ve noticed how arrangements willoften be too easy for some and too hard for others leaving many ensembleplayers frustrated or dissatisfied. This is a deficiency I am resolving.

My aim is to create arrangements which arestimulating for all. I have done this by tailoring parts to suit the differenttechnical and musical experience of each level of guitarist. This makes thearrangements particularly suitable for guitar societies, school groups andfestivals. The required levels are approximated below. As an experienced musicianand composer, I have added many points of musical interest such as modulations,chord substitutions and counterpoint. This also gives teachers and leaders tothe chance to teach their groups about these devices in the context of learninga real work. Guitars 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 7 all play the main melody at somepoint (Guitar 6 being for near-beginners).

Technical Requirements��

� Guitars1 & 2 will suit players of Grade 6 (intermediate/advanced) standard or above. There is somehigh-position work.

� Guitars3 & 4 are suitable for players of about Grade 4 (intermediate) standard.

� Guitar5 is suitable for a player of about Grade 2 (beginner) standard.

� Guitar6 is suitable for near-beginners. It is mainly open strings with some first-positionstopped notes. Although it is a technically-easy part, it is very motivatingfor guitarists in their early stages to play with a large ensemble. This partis optional.

� Guitar7 is suitable for players of about Grade 5 (intermediate) standard. The bass line hasornamentation, a lot of rhythmic interest and at times, the melody.

Teachers and player can also benefit fromthe fact that a recording of the arrangement, with performance notes, is alwaysavailable on-line.
