SKU: A0.1857626

Capture the defiant energy, sophisticated walking basslines, and legendary 1983 "Too Low for Zero" era brilliance of Elton John’s "I'm Still Standing" with this professional Performance Lead Sheet. This chart provides the essential, complete form of the song—the definitive anthem of survival and recovery—laid out in a continuous sequence to ensure you master the driving rhythm from the punchy, staccato verses to the explosive, stadium-sized chorus. It features the complete, rhythmic vocal melody, the iconic "looking like a true survivor" lyrics, and the sophisticated, synth-inflected chord changes that define its signature sound, allowing you to capture the song's transition from a focused, gritty verse to a world-class, high-energy pop-rock explosion. This is the definitive resource for musicians looking to master the technical pocket and pure, indestructible spirit of one of Elton John’s most enduring hits.

What is a “performance lead sheet”? A performance lead sheet streamlines chords, melody, and lyrics into a single continuous layout for tablets, eliminating repeats, D.S.’s, and codas so performers can simply page forward through the entire song. Each section—verse, chorus, bridge, and so on—is clearly labeled with rehearsal markers for quick navigation. The only repeats are self-contained vamps, kept on a single page to avoid page-turning backward. The goal is to make performing easier by presenting the song in its complete, best-known form so musicians can focus on playing rather than remembering forms or tricky sections. I originally created these for my own cover band, and they’ve made last-minute additions far more manageable. I hope they help you, too.
