Jesus, Etc. — Simple Sheet Music
31 people have learned this song
"Jesus, Etc." in simplified sheet music format — the bridge between beginner modes and real sheet music. Color-coded notes with lyrics scrolling horizontally. Perfect for learning to read music. Key of D, 120 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build comfort with minor chords and flat-side harmony — your six chords (Am, Bb, C, Dm, F, Gm) sit beautifully together but include Bb and Gm, which will ask your fingers to find B-flats confidently.
Your left hand carries an Alberti bass pattern throughout, so start hands-separate and lock that rolling motion in at around 80 BPM before bringing it up to 120.
The peaceful ballad feel means evenness matters more than speed — keep your Alberti pattern smooth and unhurried.
The trickiest moment for most students is the shift into Bb: land your thumb on that B-flat early and let the rest of the chord settle around it.
Once that transition feels natural, loop the passage a few times to cement it.
This is the piece that'll make flat-key chords stop feeling foreign under your hands.
