Easy piano arrangement in the key of G at 135 BPM. Difficulty: medium. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build your left-hand independence thanks to that Alberti bass pattern running underneath four expressive chords — Em, Bm7, C, and B7.

At 135 BPM the Alberti figuration moves quickly, so start hands-separate at around 90 BPM and really lock in that broken-chord shape before layering in your right hand.

The trickiest moment is the shift from C back to B7: your left hand has to reposition fast while your right hand sustains the melody, so loop just that two-bar transition until it feels automatic.

Watch the Bm7-to-B7 change too — it's only one note of difference, but rushing it will blur the melancholic color that makes the whole song work.

Use a light sustain pedal on chord changes to keep things smooth without muddying the bass, lifting cleanly each time the harmony moves.

Once you can play the full progression at tempo with a steady Alberti pattern and confident chord switches, you'll have a real foundation for any R&B or soul ballad that asks your hands to do two different things at once.
