Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great workout for your right hand's ability to lock into a steady eighth-note rhythm while your left hand moves through common pop chord shapes rooted in D major — expect a lot of D, A, Bm, and G voicings, so get comfortable with those transitions first.

At 120 BPM the tempo is brisk enough that any hesitation between chords will stick out, so I'd suggest starting hands-separate at around 80 BPM and really nailing the left-hand chord changes before you layer the melody on top.

Watch out for the syncopated pushes in the chorus — your right hand will want to land notes just before the beat, and if you're not feeling that groove internally you'll rush or drag.

A good trick is to tap the rhythm on your knee before you play it on keys.

Once the chorus clicks, loop it a dozen times and gradually bump the tempo up.

This is the kind of song that genuinely cements your confidence with I–V–vi–IV progressions, so the muscle memory you build here will pay off in dozens of other pop tunes.
