This page shows “Listen To The Music” by The Doobie Brothers 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 E at 100 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.
