Our Last Summer — Visual Piano Sheet Music
6 people have learned this song
"Our Last Summer" 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 D, 112 BPM.
This arrangement is a wonderful workout for smooth chord transitions — with 20 chords in play, your hands need to stay relaxed and move efficiently between shapes like D, Dmaj7, and D7, where often just one finger shifts.
Pay special attention to the walking bass pattern in your left hand; at 112 BPM it should feel like a gentle stroll, not a sprint, so practice that hand alone first until the movement feels automatic.
The trickiest spots will likely be transitions involving F#7 to Bm7 and the sus4 chords (Dsus4, Asus4, Esus4), where you need to hold common tones and only lift the fingers that actually move.
Loop those specific changes at half tempo until they're clean before speeding up.
Use light sustain pedal to connect the ballad feel, but change it with each new bass note to avoid mud.
This is the piece that will genuinely build your confidence moving through extended and suspended chords — once these shapes are under your fingers, you'll recognize them everywhere in pop music.
