In this piano tutorial I show you how to play "Turning Tables" by Adele. If you would like a different piano lesson, leave a comment in the comment section or thumbs up an existing comment to let me know what songs you would like me to teach you. I can't promise that I'll be able to get to them but I will at least consider your recommendations.

I play mostly by ear and therefore don't have any sheet music to share with you for the songs I teach. Sorry about that. I don't think it would be legal for me to share those anyway even if I did have them. Not sure about that. (Is there a copyright lawyer out there who knows that answer to that question?)

My free online lessons are made with love and don't cost you a dime so please, let me know that you appreciate what I do by leaving a comment, favoriting, sharing, and subscribing.

Turning Tables Lyrics:

Close enough to start a war,
All that I have is on the floor,
God only knows what we're fighting for,
All that I say, you always say more,

I can't keep up with your turning tables,
Under your thumb, I can't breathe,

So I won't let you close enough to hurt me,
No, I won't rescue you, you to just desert me,
I cant give you the heart you think you gave me,
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables,
To turning tables,

Under haunted skies I see you, ooh,
Where love is lost, your ghost is found,
I braved a hundred storms to leave you,
As hard as you try, no, I will never be knocked down,

I can't keep up with your turning tables,
Under your thumb, I can't breathe,

So I won't let you close enough to hurt me,

No, I won't rescue you, you to just desert me,
I cant give you the heart you think you gave me,
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables,
Turning tables,

Next time I'll be braver,
I'll be my own savior,
When the thunder calls for me,
Next time I'll be braver,
I'll be my own savior,
Standing on my own two feet,

I won't let you close enough to hurt me,
No, I won't rescue you, you to just desert me,
I can't give you the heart you think you gave me,
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables,
To turning tables,
Turning tables, yeah,
Turning, no, ooh.

  • It's pretty pretty good !! I love this song and try singing on my own ... but to play it on the piano is not very easy in combination with singing....
