    The left hand only uses four notes for the whole entire song and they are – A, G, F and E. You can use the notes directly below the middle C, however they sound much better if you go one more octave down like this… Here is where the notes are played on the piano, and I have also written the fingers for the left hand underneath each note… This is ho...

    The right hand uses only four chords – Am, Am/G, F7, and E7. The right hand chords fit in between each left hand bass note, meaning you play one of each. Here’s the four chords along with the fingers for the right hand underneath… This is how they sound – You will notice that the first two chords are the same (A minor), but when we add the left han...

    Start with the left hand

    The best way to practice Hit the Road Jack is to begin with the left hand. Start by playing the left hand notes really slowly and ensuring you keep a nice even rhythm of 4 beats per bar. You should be playing no faster than around 60 beats per minute – or 1 note per second. If you’re a complete beginner then I would advise going even slower to around 40-50 beats per minute.

Start by playing the first chord over and over to build up your rhythm, and see how consistent you can keep it. You shouldn’t be playing any other chords at this stage as your only goal is...

    Now practice both hands

    Once you are competent with the left and right hand separately, it’s now time to try both hands. Go back again to around 60 beats per minute – and don’t rush! One of the biggest mistakes you can make when attempting to play with both hands is to assume you can play at the same pace as you could when they were separate. Unfortunately this won’t be the case, and you will need to drop your tempo back down to around 60 beats per minute again. You also need to split your practice into two parts –...
