Starboy — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
35 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "Starboy" by The Weeknd: 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 C, 82 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build confidence with a three-chord loop — Am, F, and G — that repeats throughout, so once your hands know the pattern, you essentially know the whole song.
Your left hand plays block bass notes, which means you're landing one solid note per chord change rather than juggling a busy pattern, so focus on making those bass notes firm and evenly timed at 82 BPM.
Your right hand handles the chord shapes: Am and G sit naturally under your fingers, but watch the move to F, where you'll want to shift smoothly without a gap in the sound.
Practice that Am-to-F transition slowly, hands separately at first, until it feels automatic.
Once it's comfortable, bring both hands together and loop just the first four bars until the groove locks in.
A common stumble is rushing the G chord because it feels like a turnaround — resist that, keep it steady, and let the rhythm do the work.
This is the song that'll make three-chord progressions feel like second nature in your hands.
