Everyday written out as piano music: the vi – V – I – IV loop in D major for both hands, with chord names and finger numbers. Press play and follow the cursor. The left hand plays knock-knock footsteps (root bass · 1 · 2 · 2& · 4) and the right hand steady chords.
Everyday chord chart
The loop once round, bar by bar, in D major. The roman numeral says the chord's place in the key, so the same chart works in any key.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bm | vi | B D F# |
| 2 | A | V | A C# E |
| 3 | D | I | D F# A |

What the sheet music shows
The grand staff: the right hand on the treble staff, the left hand on the bass staff, with the chord names above and a finger number on each note (1 is the thumb). It is the accompaniment: knock-knock footsteps (root bass · 1 · 2 · 2& · 4) in the left hand and steady chords in the right, over the Bm – A – D – G chords.
Press play and a cursor follows the music. Above it, Colours paints each note in its key’s colour and Note names writes its letter on its head.
