Easy piano arrangement in the key of C at 116 BPM. Difficulty: easy. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to get comfortable with a wider chord palette while your left hand stays grounded in steady block bass — just root notes on the beat, nothing fancy, so you can focus your attention on smooth right-hand chord changes.

The main thing to watch is the move to Fm: that A-flat will feel unexpected under your fingers since everything else sits naturally in C major, so isolate any passage containing Fm and loop it slowly until the shape is automatic.

Similarly, the A major chord pops up as a colorful outsider — preview that transition a few times so you don't hesitate mid-phrase.

At 116 BPM the tempo is brisk but not rushed; start around 90 BPM hands-together and bump it up in small increments.

Once this clicks, you'll have real confidence handling borrowed chords like Fm and secondary dominants, which show up constantly in pop arrangements.
