This page shows “Tv” by Billie Eilish 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 G at 71 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.
This arrangement sits in G major at a slow, breathing 71 BPM, which sounds forgiving but actually puts a spotlight on every note — there's nowhere to hide uneven dynamics. Your right hand will mostly carry the melody in a stepwise, vocal style, so focus on keeping your fingers close to the keys and shaping each phrase like you're singing it. The left hand works through gentle chord patterns — expect open fifths and some arpeggiated shapes that need a smooth, connected legato, so use the sustain pedal lightly to blend without muddying things up. Watch the transitions between the verse and pre-chorus closely; the chord rhythm shifts subtly and it's easy to rush when the left-hand pattern changes underneath you. I'd suggest learning hands separately first, locking in the left-hand chord timing before layering the melody on top. Once combined, loop the pre-chorus at half speed until it feels automatic. The most common stumble is letting the right hand follow the left hand's rhythm instead of floating independently above it — that hand independence is exactly the skill this song will strengthen, and once you've got it here, ballads in general will feel so much more natural under your fingers.
