I'd love to learn this thing on the organ/piano/keyboard. Anyone got any ideas?

    Watch Ed play it on the organ in the One World Clip.  Just mess around with it.  It looks like he plays one or two notes at most with either hand so once you figure out one or two notes the rest comes along pretty quickly.  I have a keyboard but don't know how to play (I know two or three songs at most) but was able to figure it out through trial and error in about 15 minutes.  At least it sounded close enough.  He plays it much more loose live than on the record.

    I'm an idiot.  I bought a keyboard purely to learn Metamorphosis II because I thought it would be fun to play.  And the keyboard just sits there now.
