Jesus, Etc. — Simple Sheet Music

10 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 G, 120 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

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.
