Cristina Perri arms- piano tutorial

http://www.IplayTheKeys.com -Learn how to play piano by ear playing your favorite artists songs.

Hey guys (gals),

This is a "how to play Christina Perri, Arms" piano tutorial.

The first thing that you are going to realize is that this song is actually pretty simple. It has only 4 or 5 chords and all we are going to do on the song is to invert the chords to create different voicings.

So lets start:

First part:

A Major- A, D,C#
B Major- B, D#
E Major- E, G#,B

The verse:

E Major- G#, E, B
Ab Minor (A flat minor)- G#, E, Eb

Notice that on E Major we are inverting the chord to make it easy to go to Ab Minor.

The bridge/chorus:

C#Minor
B Major
E Major
A Major

i learned more from watching you play it then from your actual tutorial part the part that helps me with tutorials is when people explain where they are by words in the songs and also break it down step by step then play it through and continue to go back

How is this a "tutorial"?

[Washingtonian6]

I think something that would be really helpful is if you put text boxes in telling us what notes you are playing because sometimes it's hard to tell

[laniemarie21]

Hi, um for help for the next video i think you should put the good video at the end so or bith beginning and end because then people know what there playing and then they can play along with you. Also i was wondering if you could redo this video for me with a few easier notes and actually let me see the notes your hitting cause your hands were in the way a little so i was having trouble configuring what notes to play when i got there btw i'm only 12 so dont hate me

@Iplaythekeys

Im really looking forward to you reshooting this tutorial. Thank you! :)

[torts241]

i really liked the way you played the song, but i'm afraid I can't understand it that much when you chopped the parts down at the end. I couldnt see where your fingers were placed that much, and there wasn't much of a synthesis of the parts. but I still do hope I learn this one. :D

fabulous!

@Iplaythekeys

Thank you so much! and I will(:

I'm looking foward to it !

[SincerelyMe97]

actually, when i was watching the tutorial part you were confusing me and yourself by calling a B an E and the E's were the same. Just thought i should give you a heads up! :)
