Best Day Of My Life — Classic Piano Sheet Music
24 people have learned this song
Read "Best Day Of My Life" by American Authors in classic piano notation — both hands, real chords + notes, in the published key of D. Engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML; click any note to jump there as the score follows along at 100 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build confidence with Alberti bass — your left hand will roll through broken-chord patterns under each of the five chords (D, G, Bm, C, and Gmaj7), and at 100 BPM you have just enough time to land each shape cleanly without rushing.
The transition to watch is Bm to C: the roots are only a half step apart, but the chord shapes feel quite different under your fingers, so isolate that change and loop it slowly until it's automatic.
Start hands-separate — get the left-hand Alberti pattern steady like a heartbeat before adding the right-hand melody on top.
Once you combine hands, you may notice your rhythm wants to drag during the Gmaj7 sections; keep your internal pulse locked and count evenly.
A common stumble is tensing up on the upbeat hits in the melody, so stay relaxed through your wrists.
This is the piece that'll make Alberti bass feel like second nature — once it clicks here, it transfers everywhere.

You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature D, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have.

- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses.

Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?

- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
