If We Hold On Together — Easy Piano Notes for Beginners

Learn "If We Hold On Together" 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 C, 106 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a wonderful exercise in keeping your left hand steady while your right hand navigates some colorful chord changes.

The pedal bass pattern means your left hand mostly anchors on sustained or repeated root notes — simple in concept, but you need to keep it smooth and even at 106 BPM without rushing.

The real challenge lives in your right hand: you've got 15 chords here, and several — Ab, Bb, Eb, G#aug — sit outside the key of C, so expect your fingers to reach for unexpected flats.

Isolate the transitions around those borrowed chords first, hands separate at about 70 BPM, then gradually bring it up to tempo.

The G#aug moving to Am tends to trip people up, so loop that spot until the shape is automatic.

Once it clicks, you'll have genuine confidence handling chromatic borrowed chords in ballad settings — a skill that transfers to dozens of songs.
