Imagine by John Lennon for easy piano

John Lennon’s Imagine is a song with piano accompaniment in the key of C major. These days, you can play a well-tuned piano to his official video on youtube, as we did in class to any number of versions I arranged for the different levels of my adult piano students. In all versions, both hands are to play one octave lower than what’s written.

Slightly more difficult is the following version because I left out the fingerings and the right hand has to do a little more work than before.

To imitate the authentic piano arrangement, we need repetitive broken chords in eighth notes, on the right hand.
