I'll Fly Away
Free Fiddle Sheet Music 

I'll Fly Away free fiddle sheet music, with a new AlphaNotes arrangement for beginning readers.  Also, solos & harmonies for voice and guitar, and lead sheets for other instruments as well!

This gospel song is a well-loved, energetic old hymn for voice, fiddle and guitar. Choose from several versions to download, in multiple keys.

I'll Fly Away is easy even for young fiddlers to play, and the harmony is fairly predictable, but well-matched to the melody (and charming, if I say so myself). Two fiddles playing this as a duet sound great together, and one of my younger vocal students learned the harmony without much of a struggle.

Using lettered notes like this could be called CHEATING, I suppose.  What helps my new learners is really the finger numbers.  At this stage, they are still mostly learning by ear.  This just helps out.

This joyful hymn is actually about death, and what happens afterward. No more shadows, but the bright gladness of looking forward to meeting again friends and family at that home on God's celestial shore... with its promise of hope and everlasting joy, it is a hymn suitable for a funeral.

I'll Fly Away was the favorite hymn of my young friend Gabrielle, and at her memorial service, friends and family sang this song. Here is a harmonized version:

Susie:
Wow! I cannot thank you enough for the free collection of piano sheet music that you created here. My daughter and I are following everything you wrote and we LOVE it. It is super fun!!! She loves to play because of your website. We have a small binder now that is slowly growing! THANK YOU!!!!

Becky:
A thousand thanks for your beginning piano and guitar songs. I've already printed several for my children, including the Pretty Little Horses TAB and Carol of the Bells for piano. What a wonderful resource!

Debbie, Nashville, TN:
I have been looking for a very, very long time for a website like this! WOW! I have been teaching for over 20 years and it's nice to have a resource such as this!

Joy:
Thank you. Just wanted to say I found your website by mistake but what a blessing it has been. I am a missionary wife living in Spain (for many, many years) and I teach piano to Spanish children and adults. I have the barrier of very few usable things in Spanish, and can so identify with the need to write things suitable for the student...

Matt:
THIS SITE IS AMAZING!!... Thank you so much for your hard work getting these on the web, you have made many children very happy!!
