    I’m bawling through this whole video. Our piano man at church just died of a stroke yesterday. I didn’t know him well, but I think I was in love with him just because he played so incredibly. He was all over that keyboard. He played in the service for many years. He was only in his 60s I think. I bought a piano at a thrift store less than a year ago because I had always wanted to play. He gave me tips like print out a cord sheet, and practice your cords. He was a very nice man. I will miss him greatly. I can’t stop crying. PS: Thank you for this beautiful song.

    Love this lesson, the song and the arrangement. I hate to nit-pick, but at around 2:00 you mention that F and D are sharped in the key of D. I know you meant to say F and C, but it threw me for a minute. This is great though !

    This is lovely. I sang this song to my newborn grandson while I carried him around the house. It calmed him when he was fussing. I must learn to play it.
    Lisa, this song is even more meaningful to me. My husband passed away 8 months ago. This song and Evergreen were played at his memorial service. This is even more reason for me to learn to play...both songs. I thank you for this tutorial.

    G 'day from Melbourne, Australia. I am not joking, I swear, but yesterday morning I was going to write to ask if you could possibly cover this beautiful song. I was seriously sending vibes to you.... and.... viola! Thank you champ. You must have picked them up from all the way down under 😁😘🎹 Thanks again and keep up the beautiful playing and arrangements. Over the Rainbow, here I come.

    Request. I didn't realize there are some introductory verses to this. Any chance you could do another for those? Same easy to learn approach showing how to play the notes? Love it.
    "When all the world is a hopeless jumble
    And the raindrops tumble all around
    Heaven opens a magic lane
    When all the clouds darken up the skyway
    There's a rainbow highway to be found
    Leading from your windowpane
    To a place behind the sun
    Just a step beyond the rain ..."

    Quick question isn’t bar three Gmaj7 *then* G7? Just want to make sure. I’m ‘hearing’ my intervals well so I can memorize the structure.

    Lisa, you have such a natural, magnetic personality, combined with physical beauty, a fine voice and piano skills (probably far greater than what you show in lessons) --- you should be performing in clubs or cabarets. Do you perform? if so, where?
