Lady — Visual Piano Sheet Music
6 people have learned this song
"Lady" in visual bar notation — see every note as a colored bar on the staff. Easier to read than traditional sheet music. Scrolls automatically as you play. Key of A, 120 BPM.
This arrangement is a great workout for adding color tones to basic chord shapes — you'll move between A, A6, and A7 (and similar clusters on D and E), which often means shifting just one finger while the rest of your hand stays planted, so really lock in those anchor fingers.
Your left hand follows an oompah bass pattern — root note, then the chord chunk up an octave — and at 120 BPM that needs to feel relaxed and automatic before you layer in the right hand, so start hands-separate and slower than you think.
Watch the jump to that C chord; it's the one move outside the home key and it can catch you off guard if you're cruising on muscle memory.
Loop that transition until it's boring.
By the end of this piece, voice-leading between plain triads and their 6th or 7th extensions will feel like second nature — that's a skill you'll use in almost every pop song from here on out.
