This is my interpretation of Justin Bieber's brand new song "Pray". Instead of playing a straight "copy" version, I freestyled my own bridge and I played a different ending. Most of the song is the same, but I thought to make it more my own :)

The video shows me playing the main piano part, but I later played 2 other background pianos, strings, and bass. I also added a drum beat that I made using FL Studio.

This was the most complicated instrumental I've ever played. I knew I had to pull out all the stops to do this song the justice it deserves.

Hope you like it!

Notes: (**Note- I do not have sheet music. I play by ear. This is the best I can do. If you have any questions just message me and I will try to explain it more clearly. Your best bet is to write these notes down on paper and bring them to the piano with you!)

Lyrics: (**Note- These are the actual lyrics. My piano instrumental has an original bridge/ending)

Intro:
Ohh Ohh Ohh .. and I pray

Verse 1:
I just cant sleep tonight.
Knowing that things ain't right.
It's in the papers, it's on the tv, it's everywhere that I go.
Children are crying.
Soldiers are dying
Some people don't have a home

Prechorus 1:
But I know there's sunshine beyond that rain
I know there's good times beyond that pain, hey
Can you tell me how I can make a change

Chorus:
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray

Verse 2:
I lose my appetite, knowing kids starve tonight.
Am I a sinner, cause half my dinner, is still there on my plate.
Ooo I got a vision, to make a difference.
And its starting today.

Prechorus 2:
Cause I know there's sunshine beyond that rain
I know there's good times beyond that pain, hey
Heaven tell me I can make a change.

Chorus:
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and

Bridge: (**Note- I played an original bridge & ending)
Pray for the broken-hearted.
I pray for the life not started
I pray for all the lungs not breathing.
I pray for all the souls in need.
I pray. Can you give em one today.

I just cant sleep tonight
Can someone tell how to make a change?

Chorus:
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and I pray

Outro:
I pray ..

I pray..

I close my eyes and pray ..

Wow, You're very talented friend =D Question though...... could you perhaps send a link with the same notes in the description in a Staff format? I've tried playing it and I've not been succesful. I think the correct word would be (staves)(?) I know you say that you play by ear an all...but I was just wondering..... thanks
