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 Us Against The World without reading music. The left hand plays cradle pulse (root bass · 1 · 2 · 2.3 (6/8)) and the right hand cradle chords.
Us Against The World accompaniment in letter notes
The C – Csus4 – G – Gsus4 loop with cradle pulse in the left hand and cradle 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.
