Our House — Piano Lead Sheet
3 people have learned this song
"Our House" lead sheet with chords, melody, and lyrics. Play the melody while following chord symbols above. Perfect for sing-along or accompaniment. Key of A, 120 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build comfort with seventh-chord shapes in your right hand — Bm7 and F#m7 both ask you to spread across four notes cleanly, so spend a minute just landing each shape from the air until it feels automatic.
Your left hand keeps a steady block bass pattern, which sounds simple but demands consistent timing at 120 BPM; practice it alone with a metronome until it feels boring, then add the right hand.
Watch the move from D to D6 closely — it's only one note changing, but rushing it smudges the peaceful quality of the whole phrase.
The trickiest moment is the shift to that F chord, which lives outside the key of A and can catch your fingers off guard; loop the bar before it and the bar after until the transition is smooth and confident.
Once you nail that F, you'll have a real feel for how borrowed chords add emotional color — a skill that pays off in dozens of songs ahead.
