Play the full song with sheet music
Young Girls written out as piano music: the I – iii – vi – IV loop in A major for both hands, with chord names and finger numbers. Press play and follow the cursor. The left hand plays patient seesaw (root–fifth 1-1-1-5) and the right hand double-skip chords.
Young Girls chord chart
The loop once round, bar by bar, in A major. The roman numeral says the chord's place in the key, so the same chart works in any key.
| Bar | Chord | Numeral | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A | I | A C# E |
| 2 | C#m | iii | C# E G# |
| 3 | F#m | vi | F# A C# |
| 4 | D | IV | 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: patient seesaw (root–fifth 1-1-1-5) in the left hand and double-skip chords in the right, over the A – C#m – F#m – D 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.
