Someone Like You — Piano Lead Sheet
81 people have learned this song
"Someone Like You" lead sheet with chords, melody, and lyrics. Play the melody while following chord symbols above. Perfect for sing-along or accompaniment. 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.
