Piano lesson: Row, Row, Row Your Boat

First, watch this video to learn how to play the melody line (right hand) of Row, Row, Row Your Boat (in the key of C major).

Next, in the video below I teach how to play the left hand for "Row, Row, Row Your Boat." We need only two chords: C major and G major. I show how to play them as broken chords, to create a "rocking" accompaniment to this peaceful song.

In the third video, I explain how to read the music (the notes) for the melody.

Here is a printable sheet music (PDF file) for the song "Row, Row, Row Your Boat". It has notes, chord symbols, and the lyrics. Use it while studying these lessons. Click the image of the sheet music to open/save/print it. I also have sheet music for more complex versions of this song (with more chords, with piano accompaniment, etc.).
