Beauty And The Beast β Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
107 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Beauty And The Beast" by Alan Menken: lyrics on screen with the chords above each line and a bouncing ball that lands on every word in time. Sing along, or play along on guitar or piano from the chord chart. Change the key to fit your voice, slow the tempo down. Key of G, 80 BPM.
This arrangement is a lovely way to develop smooth chord transitions in your left hand β you'll move through nine different chords, but the walking bass pattern gives you a steady, predictable rhythm to anchor against, so lean into that consistency.
At 80 BPM you have breathing room, but watch the shift from Dsus4 to D7: that suspension wants to resolve cleanly, so practice lifting just the one finger rather than reshaping your whole hand.
The Am7-to-D7 movement comes up often and is worth drilling on its own until it feels automatic.
I'd suggest learning hands separately first, getting the walking bass comfortable before layering in the melody.
Once you put them together, keep your tempo honest β no speeding up during easy stretches.
Use light pedal to connect the longer melodic phrases, but change it with each new bass note so things don't blur.
This piece will genuinely solidify your ability to voice seventh chords smoothly, a skill you'll use in everything from jazz to pop ballads going forward.
