Question

Can someone help me find a piano tutorial for "Baby Blue Eyes" by Rocket to the Moon? I've looked on Youtube and can't find anything but a couple of covers.

Answer 1

Alright like, here's the thing. I can't read sheet music yet. This is my and my bf's song and I want to learn to play it and I can't find it anywhere, like, at all. I'm kinda desperate now. D: I prefer video tutorials but if that's not an option I will take just about anything else. I'm working on something special lol

Answer 2

Answer 5

I'd recommend starting with the chords and working yr way up from there. You can easily find guitar chords for most songs and if you can translate those chords to chords on the piano then you'll have a good starting point.

Here's a tab I found: http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/a/a_rocket_to_the_moon/baby_blue_eyes_ver5_crd.htm
This song gets a little tricky because it looks like it uses a "capo" on the fourth fret, which means that those chords are all relative to the fourth fret. That means each chord listed is actually 4 semitones higher. e.g. when the tab says "G" you should actually play a "B" (G - G# - A - A# - B, there are four semitones in between).

I'll help walk through this with you, but the first thing you should do is translate each chord used in that tab above to its "natural" form. that is to say, "transpose" each chord up four "semitones". Let's see what ya can do ;)

Answer 6

:O Thank you so much! :D Let me look at the linky.

Answer 7

Hmm...Idk how to play that :( I had another link that showed like which cords were what on the piano but it didn't sound right, at all. The only demo they have on that site is for guitar, too. I'm still just learning piano so reading it is...a long way coming. I just really wanted to learn this song.

Answer 8

Yep, I can help you figure out how to convert this to piano chords, but you gotta transpose it first ;).

Remember:
- We are transposing 4 semitones up.
- Not all notes have sharps: A A# B C C# D D# E F F# G G#

So find the note it says, and move it up 4 notes. I gave you the first one: G -> B ;)

Answer 9

ohhh comprende okay

What is the # after the letters?
A -> C
B -> D
C -> E
E -> G

Answer 10

The # means sharp. Although there are 7 "lettered" notes, there are notes in between. On a piano, these correspond to the black keys. They are called sharps or flats, and can be thought of as the same thing.

The note above A is A# (pronounced "A Sharp"). It is also the same note as the note below B (called Bb, pronounced "B flat"). The lowercase b means 'flat'

BUT on the piano you'll notice that there are some white keys without black keys in between. These would be E/F and B/C. There is no such thing as any of these: E#, Fb, B#, Cb. They just don't exist.

Answer 11

Answer 12
