This arrangement sits in G major with a deceptively brisk 144 BPM, so your first move should be to slow it way down — try 90 BPM — and work hands separately until the chord shapes feel automatic under your left hand.

You'll be moving through open-position chords that sit naturally in G, but the tempo means your transitions need to be clean and anticipated; start shifting your left hand a beat early in your mind so you're never lunging for the next chord.

Your right hand carries a vocal melody with some syncopated rhythms that pull against the beat — tap the rhythm on a flat surface before adding pitch so your timing is internalized, not guessed at.

Watch for spots where the melody sustains while your left hand changes underneath; that's where things tend to fall apart, so loop those bars specifically.

Use the sustain pedal to connect chords but change it with each new harmony to avoid muddiness — listen for clean lifts.

Once both hands are comfortable alone, combine them in short four-bar phrases before stringing sections together.

This is a fantastic piece for building your ability to keep steady time while playing an expressive, floating melody on top — a skill that transfers to almost every pop song you'll learn next.
