ABCD (Simple version with lyrics and Romanized text, chords)-Nayeon

Hi, I am Rita. I transcribe piano sheet music since 2007. All my sheet music are accurate but simple, beginner-level transcriptions with lyrics (singing is good for health). Please, request any popular song in any genre and language.

"ABCD"

I *doubled note values* to make sightreading easier for beginners. The track isn't recorded in the 2/2 time.

The right hand imitates the vocal delivery by Nayeon: a predominant vocal style is *semi-staccato*.

Pitch inflections (slurred notes) should be played very softer than other notes.

During the rap chanting focus on precise rhythm. It might be tiring to play on the piano with forte touch, play pianissimo.

"ABCD" is composed with a straight rhythm in common time. It is easy to count for beginners; accent strong beats.

The hook (Are you gonna be my babe) is sung with indefinite pitch. I couldn't write it out this way in all choruses because of the layered vocals: there would be no place to shine for "Hey, listen to me now!"

The left hand provides with musical texture. "ABCD" is homophonic: harmony supports the vocal line with chords. You can arpeggiate chords in the left hand.

"ABCD" is transcribed in the original *key,* E Flat Minor, and uses basic major and minor chords *E♭m C♭ A♭m D♭.*

A chord change lacks motion and is fundamentally static: there is no sense of progression, only briefly displaced pedal tones. Its only use is to mark time.
