You used to date a (E)blonde,

You hit them stones
and broke your home.
Crack rock, crack rock,
crack rock, crack rock.
Hit tin’ stones

You’re smok in’ stones

You’re hit tin’ stones
and broke your home.
Oh, ah,

This page shows “Crack Rock” by Frank Ocean in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of Bb at 90 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.
This arrangement is a great workout for navigating chromatic chord shapes that sit outside the usual pop comfort zone — you've got Eaug and Gm6 alongside more familiar voicings like Fmaj7 and Am, so your right hand needs to stay alert to those half-step shifts between shapes. Pay special attention to the move into E augmented: that G♯ can catch you off guard if you're on autopilot. Your left hand runs an octave bass pattern throughout, which at 90 BPM feels relaxed but demands steady reach and clean timing — keep your wrist loose and let your arm do the traveling. I'd suggest learning the chord progression hands-separate first, then loop just the E7-to-Eaug-to-Am passage until the voice leading feels automatic. Once that's smooth, bring hands together at around 70 BPM before building up to tempo. The sad, soulful mood here lives in the dynamics, so once the notes are secure, shape your phrases with gentle swells rather than playing everything flat. This is the piece that'll make augmented chords and minor-sixth voicings feel like familiar friends in your hands.
