Easy piano arrangement in the key of B at 114 BPM. Difficulty: easy. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build confidence moving through six chords at a steady, mid-tempo groove.

Your left hand plays block chords, so focus on memorizing the shapes for A, Bm, C, D, Em, and G until each one feels automatic — the jump from C up to D and then to Em is where most students hesitate, so isolate that transition early.

At 114 BPM the rhythm is forgiving, but the upbeat pop feel means you need to keep your timing crisp; practice with a metronome at around 85 BPM first, then nudge it up in small increments.

Play hands separately until the left hand practically runs on autopilot, then layer the melody in your right hand.

Watch that Bm shape — the minor third catches people off guard if they've been coasting on the major chords.

Stick with it, because this song will lock six essential chord changes into your muscle memory for good.
