Play the full song with sheet music
The accompaniment with every note named, bar by bar: the bar sheet shows each note as a bar on the staff with its letter inside, so you can accompany There’s A Place For Us without reading music. The left hand plays pausing footsteps (root bass · 1 · 2 · 3) and the right hand double-clap chords.
There’s A Place For Us accompaniment in letter notes
The Em – C – D – Em loop with pausing footsteps in the left hand and double-clap chords in the right. Notes struck together are joined with a plus; C4 is middle C.
How to read the bar sheet
The player above shows the treble staff (right hand) over the bass staff (left hand). Every note is a bar as long as it sounds, at its place on the staff, with its name inside, and the music scrolls past a line that marks now. The chord names run along the top.
Start with the left hand alone at a slow speed, then the right, then both. When the letters feel easy, try the sheet music.
