Easy piano arrangement in the key of C at 120 BPM. Difficulty: easy. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build comfort with suspended chords — you'll move between Csus2, Fsus2, and Gsus4 frequently, so pay attention to which finger lifts or shifts to create each suspension, because rushing those changes is the number-one stumbling point I see.

Your left hand follows an oompah bass pattern at 120 BPM, which sits in a sweet spot: steady enough to groove but slow enough to keep relaxed.

Start hands-separate and really lock in that left-hand rhythm before combining, because once both hands are together the sus-chord voicings in your right hand demand mental space.

Watch the Am7-to-G transition especially — it's easy to land on a wrong bass note there if you're on autopilot.

Loop the verse progression slowly until the chord shapes feel automatic under your fingers.

This peaceful ballad is the perfect piece to solidify smooth voice-leading between closely related chords, a skill you'll use constantly going forward.
