In this version I offer you a piano arrangement of “Always remember us this Way” accessible to beginners.
The original arrangement has been simplified so that there is less variation to remember. This way, you can concentrate on the rhythm and your chord sequences.
In addition, the song is quite slow (64 bpm) which will help you in the sequence of these. The piece includes many chord inversions, judiciously chosen so that they are very simple to follow.
Avoid moving your hand too much because almost everything is under your fingers. I advise you to respect the fingerings shown in the video to be able to play the pieces with ease and fluidity.

The piano arrangement of “Always remember us this way” has undergone a simplification in order to return to a simpler rhythm. Although this version retains the melodic framework, the rhythm has been simplified. First of all, it is important that you are comfortable with the “easy rhythmic music theory on the piano” course.
In this version, the right hand will mainly focus on the quarter note, with a few eighth notes added. This means that you will play highlights of the measure with quarter notes and you can add additional notes with eighth notes to embellish the playing.
As for the left hand, it will concentrate mainly on whole notes and half notes, with a few passing notes in eighth notes. This means you'll play long, sustained chords, holding the notes for several beats, but you'll also add some faster eighth notes to add variety and flow to the accompaniment.
It is recommended to check out the course on eighth notes on the piano, as it will help you understand how to rhythmically place both hands. It is important to properly coordinate the rhythms of the right and left hands in order to create harmonious and balanced accompaniment.
By regularly practicing these new rhythmic techniques and relying on the recommended prerequisites, you will be able to master this simplified arrangement of “Always remember us this way” and perform it with ease on the piano.

This version almost repeats the original piano arrangement of “Always remember us this way”.
Firstly, the first verse and chorus are quite simple rhythmically. In fact, it will involve playing mainly quarter notes in the right hand with some melodic sixteenth note interventions following the song. The left hand is simple and plays some passing notes in eighth notes and sixteenth notes. If you have an advanced level of play you will have no difficulty playing both hands together. On the other hand, respect the fingerings shown in the video because they are necessary to link your chords fluidly.
Secondly you will have to work on a more complex rhythm from the second verse. In fact, only the first beat is played hand together. The rest of the measure is played alternating between left and right hands. This rhythm will test your coordination. Besides, I advise you to use the player to display only the left hand or the right hand and the associated sound. This will allow you to fully understand the rhythmic placement of each of your hands before working together.
