Everyday — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial
17 people have learned this song
Watch "Everyday" by Buddy Holly in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. 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.
