“The Upright Piano” by Kevin Milner and Piero Peluche is a jangly folk rock song about making peace with one’s lot in life. The uplifting arrangement adds a little extra hope to the commiserating lyrics.
The instrumental version creates a warm and positive atmosphere perfect for indie films, documentaries, trailers, ad campaigns, explainers, podcasts, corporate presentations, social media and YouTube videos.

Lyrics
The piano is upright
But I am not
I might be drunk
I might be shot
Between the Mighty and the tincture in my cup
I do my best to not grow up
So come on brother, grab your pillow
For the road to Amarillo
Well, remember all the things we've done?
I don't either but I bet it was fun
Well, it catches you in the long run
So I surrender to the setting sun
I surrender to the setting sun
You can go in to debt
From getting out of pain
Leaves you not quite sober,
Not quite sane
The days melt into nights
The nights fade into days
My life is spent inside the haze
But there's just one way I can be
So I will spend my whole life free
Well, remember all the things we've done?
I don't either but I bet it was fun
Well, it catches you in the long run
So I surrender to the setting sun
I surrender to the setting sun
