Dominique — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
21 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Dominique" by The Singing Nun: 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, 168 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build your Alberti bass confidence — your left hand will roll through broken-chord patterns on G, C, D, and D7 shapes, and at 168 BPM that left hand needs to feel almost automatic before you add the melody.
Start hands-separate and slow it down to around 100 BPM, focusing on keeping your left-hand fingers close to the keys so you're not bouncing.
The right hand carries a cheerful, singable melody that sits comfortably in G major, so fingering is straightforward.
Watch the A7 chord when it appears — it introduces a C♯ that your left hand won't expect, and the move from A7 into D is the spot most students fumble the first few times, so loop that transition until it's smooth.
Once both hands feel easy alone, combine them in short four-bar phrases before playing end to end.
This is the piece that'll lock in your Alberti pattern so it feels like second nature going forward.
