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

More The Chainsmokers

More Kim Petras

"Don't Lie"

The track is transcribed in the original key, A Minor, and uses four basic major and minor chords Fmaj7 F Am C.

"Don't Lie" is composed with a straight rhythm in common time. Accent strong beats but do it softly. 

A twelve-note scale and a metered sheet music isn't capable to express the sound of "NAME" with its layered vocal and inflections of electronic instruments that The Chainsmokers used.

Learn the left hand first and avoid learning both hands together in the very beginning. Patience is a virtue. Otherwise you will fail immediately and abandon the score.

The left-hand texture maintains movement with rhythmic chords.

The right hand imitates the vocal delivery by Kim Petras: a predominant vocal style is staccato.

Pitch inflections (slurred notes) should be played quietly.

Focus on precise rhythm in the rap part. It is tiring to play with forte touch; play pianissimo. 

The aesthetic value of a track is based on stepwise motion that reminds of human speech.
