My Heart Is Open — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial

6 people have learned this song

Watch "My Heart Is Open" by Maroon 5 in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of C, 100 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build comfort with left-hand octave bass patterns at a relaxed 100 BPM — your left hand will stretch between root-note octaves throughout, so if that's newer for you, isolate it first and focus on keeping your wrist loose and your thumb light.

Your right hand moves through familiar shapes in C, but watch for the sus voicings: Csus2 and Gsus4 each add just one lifted or shifted finger, so practice toggling between C and Csus2, then G and Gsus4, until the motion feels effortless.

The E major chord is the sneaky one here — it's borrowed from outside the key and will catch your fingers off guard if you're on autopilot, so loop that transition a few times slowly before full run-throughs.

Start hands-separate, then combine at around 70 BPM and build up.

This is the song that'll make suspended chords second nature for you — once they're in your hands, you'll hear them everywhere.
