In this piano tutorial I show you how to play "The Star Spangled Banner" by Francis Scott Key. I had to learn this exact version for my graduate school piano proficiency at The Boston Conservatory. I figured I would teach it to you too since I had to go through the trouble of learning a song from sheet music as it is written. You can find my other tutorials by searching the name of the song you want to play + "Joe Raciti" or "jraciti1". If you would like different piano lessons from the ones I have posted, you can vote for the next tutorial at the Facebook link above. Otherwise, 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.

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

The Star Spangled Banner Lyrics:

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
