Love — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
22 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Love" by Musiq Soulchild: lyrics on screen with the chords above each line and a bouncing ball that lands on every word in time. Sing along, or play along on guitar or piano from the chord chart. Change the key to fit your voice, slow the tempo down. Key of C#, 100 BPM.
This arrangement is a great workout for extended chord voicings — you'll cycle through major 9ths, minor 9ths, and dominant 7ths almost constantly, so getting comfortable stretching into those wider shapes in C# is half the battle.
Your left hand keeps a steady block bass pattern, which is forgiving at 100 BPM, but watch the transitions between chords like Amaj9 and B into C#m9 — those shifts move you across the keyboard quickly, and rushing them is the number-one stumbling point I see.
Start hands-separate at around 70 BPM, focusing on locking in your right-hand chord changes before layering the bass back in.
Once both hands feel natural, loop the verse progression until the extended shapes sit under your fingers without you hunting for them.
Light sustain pedal will help you connect the bigger jumps smoothly — just release on each chord change to keep the harmony clean.
Stick with this one; it's the piece that'll make 9th chords feel like home in your hands.

- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.

- Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
