Easy piano arrangement in the key of G at 130 BPM. Difficulty: medium. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build your confidence with minor seventh shapes — that Bm7 chord asks you to stretch a bit more than the standard triads you'll cycle through with G, C, and Em, so isolate it early and get the hand shape memorized before you try full run-throughs.

At 130 BPM the tempo is driving, and your left hand plays a block bass pattern, which means you need rock-steady timing rather than fancy movement — practice that hand alone with a metronome at around 100 BPM first, then nudge it up in small increments.

Watch the transition from Em to Epow (the power chord voicing): it's a subtle shift that's easy to fumble if you're on autopilot.

The trickiest stumbling point is rushing through the Bm7-to-C change, so loop just those two bars slowly until the motion feels automatic.

Once everything clicks, this song will seriously solidify your ability to lock into a rhythmic groove while managing five distinct chord shapes — that's a skill that transfers to dozens of pop tunes you'll tackle next.
