Teachers Instructions:
The Song Book is made to be a complementary material for all classes. I recommend using
it once a month at least with your students, so you can always implement a fun activity
during your lessons.
The songs are arranged by levels in order: B1 TO B2.
There are at least three activities per song, all with “filling the blanks”, but they vary ac-
cording to each song and its specific theme.
This book is in English only. Enjoy it!

Why music is so important?
Music changes the routine in the classroom. It offers resources for teachers to develop the
4 skills with students: listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Learning English using music exposes students to a safe and non-threatening environ-
ment of an authentic language, who normally feel a certain tension when exposed to a
foreign language.
In addition to some studies that demonstrate that music is the largest source of English
outside the classroom, along with games, series and films, and increases exposure to au-
thentic language in a fun way that encourages students’ learning.
Some good arguments:
. Music is part of our students’ daily lives. They often hear them outside the classroom.
. There is a variety of vocabulary, content, grammatical points, themes and cultural aspects
that can be addressed in a single song.
. We can develop students’ critical sense.
. The songs always contain authentic language. There are songs that contain inappropriate
words
and content. However, in this book, all the songs were carefully selected so that you don’t
waste time choosing from the thousands of songs.
. We can use a song as ‘warm up’, as the main theme of the lesson or as an assessment
and verification of student learning.
. Exposure to a variety of accents other than English and, through music from different
regional backgrounds, being presented to different cultures.
. We can explore current situations, as they portray the current world.
. And music relaxes, entertains and teaches!

It’s like rain on your wedding day
It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
And who would’ve thought, it figures 21
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly

He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down , he thought
“Well, isn’t this nice?”

Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

When you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out

When you think everything’s gone wrong
And everything blows up in your face
A traffic jam when you’re already late

A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It’s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It’s meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
A little too ironic

And, yeah, I really do think

And, yeah, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

be bring get have make seem

see sell start tell think write
Once I was seven years old

My momma told me:
Go make yourself some friends, or you’ll be lonely
Once I was seven years old
It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger

Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was eleven years old. My daddy told me:

Go get yourself a wife, or you’ll be lonely
Once I was eleven years old
23
I always had that dream like my daddy before me

So, I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about the glory, just always seemed to bore me
‘Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told

Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
I only see my goals, I don’t believe in failure

‘Cause I know the smallest voices; they can make it major
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
And if we don’t meet before I leave, I hope I’ll see you later
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told

I was writing ‘bout everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old
Soon we’ll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We’ve traveled around the world and we’re still roaming
Soon we’ll be thirty years old
I’m still learning about life, my woman brought children for me

So, I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me, some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind, my brother, I’m still sorry
Soon I’ll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one

Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month
Soon I’ll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold?
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I’ll be sixty years old
24
Soon I’ll be sixty years old , will I think the world is cold?
Or will I have a lot of children who can hold me?

Once I was seven years old, my momma told me:

Go make yourself some friends, or you’ll be lonely
Once I was seven years old (x2)

Love Story by Taylor Swift – Present Perfect and Nouns

Teacher’s instructions: Ask students to listen and complete the lyrics.
We were both young when I first saw you

I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there, on a balcony in summer air
See the lights , see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say “hello”, little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles

And my daddy said “Stay away from Juliet”
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go
And I said Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone

I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince, and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you

We keep quiet, cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes. Escape this town for a little while

Realized what you gotta do

I don’t believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now
And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
