Someone Like You — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
315 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Someone Like You" by Adele: 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 G, 68 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build your left-hand Alberti bass pattern — that broken-chord figure where your fingers roll bottom-top-middle-top beneath the melody.
At 68 BPM the tempo is forgiving, but don't let that fool you: slow songs expose every uneven note, so practice your left hand alone first until the Alberti motion feels automatic across all seven chords.
Pay special attention to the transitions into Bm and E — both use notes outside the simple G-major hand position, so isolate those changes and loop them until your fingers land without hesitation.
Once each hand is confident, bring them together at half speed and gradually work up.
Keep your wrist relaxed and let the sustain pedal connect each chord change smoothly, lifting right as the new chord sounds.
Nail this piece and you'll have Alberti bass in your muscle memory for good.

- 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.
