All I Ask — Piano Lead Sheet
22 people have learned this song
"All I Ask" lead sheet with chords, melody, and lyrics. Play the melody while following chord symbols above. Perfect for sing-along or accompaniment. Key of E, 142 BPM.
This arrangement is a beautiful workout for smooth chord transitions — you're navigating 17 different chords in the key of E, including some unexpected borrowed chords like Dm, F, and Bb that will pull your hands out of familiar territory.
Your left hand follows an oompah bass pattern, so focus on keeping that steady and relaxed while your right hand moves through the harmonic shifts above it.
The trickiest moments come when you jump between sharp-key shapes like C#m and G#m and then suddenly land on natural-key chords — practice those transitions hands-separate at half tempo until the fingering feels automatic.
Loop the sections where chromatic movement sneaks in, especially around C#7 and D7, because rushing those will muddy the emotional pull of the melody.
Use the sustain pedal generously but change it cleanly with each bass note to avoid harmonic blur.
This is the piece that will genuinely build your confidence handling chromatic borrowed chords in a pop ballad context — once these shifts feel natural, you'll recognize them everywhere.
