Free karaoke for "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence: 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 E, 104 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great workout for your left-hand chord vocabulary — you'll cycle through nine distinct shapes including Am, Am7, B7, and a couple of power chords (Dpow and Epow), so spend your first pass just drilling those changes hands-separate at around 70 BPM until every voicing feels automatic.

The trickiest transitions tend to be moving between Am7 and B7, where your fingers need to shift quickly without hesitation, and jumping to those power chords during the dramatic choruses — isolate those two-bar spots and loop them until they're clean.

At 104 BPM the rhythm has a driving, upbeat pulse, so keep your counting steady and resist the urge to rush through the intense sections; a metronome is your best friend here.

Once hands are comfortable alone, combine them slowly and let the tempo creep up in small increments.

This is the piece that will really solidify your minor-key chord transitions and teach you to stay rhythmically grounded when the energy spikes — once you own that skill, so many dramatic pop songs will feel easier.
