A cheerful Level 1 piano reduction of the traditional English folk song Oh Dear, What Can the Matter Be?

This arrangement keeps the melody clear and accessible, supported by simple D–G–A7 harmony exactly as shown in the original folk tune.

Ideal for early‑stage pianists, teaching studios, and students exploring traditional songs.

Includes the full chorus and verse lyrics (“Oh, dear! What can the matter be? … Johnny’s so long at the fair.”) as printed in the score.

Steady rhythms, single‑note left‑hand patterns, and clean engraving make this a friendly introduction to folk‑song repertoire.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
