How Can You Mend A Broken Heart — Easy Piano Notes for Beginners
35 people have learned this song
Learn "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart" on piano with easy notes — perfect for absolute beginners. Large color-coded note names show exactly which keys to press. No music reading required. Key of E, 72 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to develop your chord vocabulary in the key of E, and that pedal bass pattern in your left hand is your anchor — keep it steady and smooth while your right hand handles the melodic line above.
At 72 BPM you have breathing room, but don't let that fool you; the real challenge is navigating nine distinct chord shapes cleanly, especially the Bsus4 to B resolution and the shift from Emaj7 into C#m.
Practice those two transitions hands-separate first, looping them until the fingering feels automatic.
Watch your right hand during the vocal-melodic phrases — they'll want to rush ahead of the beat, so count internally and let the sadness in the melody breathe.
Your F#m7 shape may feel awkward at first; drill it in isolation until you can land it without looking down.
This is the piece that'll make jazzy seventh chords and sus voicings feel like second nature in your playing.
