Die With A Smile — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
96 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Die With A Smile" by Bruno Mars & Lady Gaga: 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 A, 80 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to develop your ballad touch in the key of A major, where you'll get comfortable with shapes like A, E, F#m, and D — a classic I–V–vi–IV family that sits nicely under your fingers once you learn the hand positions.
At 80 BPM the tempo feels relaxed, but don't let that fool you: the real challenge is keeping your rhythm steady through held chords and syncopated vocal-style melodies in the right hand.
Start hands-separate, locking in your left-hand chord changes until they feel automatic, then layer the melody on top.
Watch the transitions into and out of F#m especially — that's where most students rush or hesitate.
Use the sustain pedal to connect chords smoothly, but lift and re-press with each chord change so you don't blur harmonies together.
Try looping the chorus at half speed until the hand coordination clicks.
By the time you've got this one down, your ballad phrasing and pedal timing will feel noticeably more confident.
