These Eyes — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial

Watch "These Eyes" by The Guess Who in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of C, 96 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to get comfortable with seventh chords — you'll move through maj7, dominant 7, and minor 7 shapes, which gives your fingers real variety even at a gentle 96 BPM.

Your left hand plays an oompah bass pattern, alternating a low root note with a mid-range chord chunk, so lock that rhythm in early by practicing it alone until it feels automatic.

The trickiest spots come when you shift into the sharps — transitions around Dmaj7, Emaj7, and F# will feel unfamiliar if you've mostly played in C, so loop those passages slowly until the hand positions click.

Watch your right hand during those same sections; keep your fingers close to the keys to avoid scrambling.

Once the left hand is steady, layering the melody on top becomes surprisingly natural.

This is the piece that'll make seventh-chord voicings feel like second nature to you.
