You Get What You Give — Karaoke: Lyrics & Chords to Sing & Play Along
27 people have learned this song
Free karaoke for "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals: 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 D, 100 BPM.
This arrangement is a fantastic workout for your extended chord vocabulary — you'll move through fifteen different shapes including Bm9, Gmaj9, and Dmaj7, which means your right hand needs to be comfortable stretching beyond basic triads.
At 100 BPM the tempo is moderate, but the real challenge is nailing those transitions cleanly, especially moving between the color chords like Am7 and Asus4 where only one note shifts but your fingers want to rebuild from scratch.
Start hands-separate: get your left hand's block bass pattern steady and automatic first, then layer in the right-hand voicings.
Once you combine them, loop the verse progression slowly until the chord changes feel like muscle memory, not mental math.
Watch the spots where you jump from F#m7 to G — that's a quick positional shift that trips people up if you're not anticipating it a beat early.
This is the song that'll make extended chords feel like home in your hands, so lean into those jazzy shapes and trust your ears.
