Everyday — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
28 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Everyday" by Buddy Holly: 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 C, 216 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build confidence with a walking bass line — your left hand will stay busy moving stepwise through chord roots and passing tones, so start by practicing that hand alone at half speed until the motion feels automatic.
At 216 BPM the tempo is brisk, and the biggest stumbling point is usually the chromatic chords like Ab, Bb, and Eb that pull you away from the home key of C; isolate those transitions and loop them until your fingers find the black keys without hesitation.
Your right hand mostly handles familiar shapes (C, F, G7, Am), but watch the shift into Dm7 and C7 — land the seventh with your pinky ready so you're not scrambling.
Once each hand is steady, bring them together at a slower tempo and gradually ramp up.
Don't rush to full speed; clean rhythm matters more than raw pace.
By the time this clicks, you'll have a solid foundation in walking bass coordination that transfers to dozens of other rock and pop tunes.

- Yes — this is a free karaoke slide for "Everyday" by Buddy Holly. The lyrics appear on screen a line at a time and each word lights up exactly when it's sung, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word. A backing plays underneath so you can just sing.
- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
- Can I change the key of "Everyday" to match my voice or capo?
- Yes. The original is in C, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
- Can I slow "Everyday" down to learn the words and chords?
- Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
