Billy Joel’s “Just The Way You Are” has been a staple in the music industry since its release in 1977. It won two Grammy Awards for Record of the Year and Song of the Year in 1979, and our arrangement allows you to experience this iconic piece in a unique and engaging way.
Our arrangement is in the key of D, with several passing modulations in the bridge. It features a wide variety of chords - 22 chord shapes in total - requiring fluency and accuracy in navigating position changes. This piece serves as an excellent tool to broaden your chordal knowledge and introduces a lot of extended harmony chords, providing practical support for music theory learning.
The Da Segno markings are optional and are included to mirror the original performance with the sax solo. If there is no one to solo, you can simplify the arrangement by omitting the D.S markings and concluding the performance at the end of the third page.
