Learn how to play the song “Everything Stays” from the fantasy TV series “Adventure Time” on the lyre harp. Marceline the Vampire Queen (voiced by Olivia Olson) sang this song in the show. I changed the melody a little to accommodate for notes not available on the diatonic lyre. The notes are written in the video and can also be downloaded on my Patreon page as a PDF file alongside the lyrics.
Tuning instructions:
This is a 16-string lyre in the video. Tune the strings to the following notes:
G, A, B, C D E F G A B C’ D’ E’ F’ G’ A’
or sometimes written as:
G3 A3 B3 C4 D4 E4 F4 G4 A4 B4 C5 D5 E5 F5 G5 A5
To play using both hands:
Like in the video, the dominant hand plays the melody while the non-dominant hand handles the bass notes. Practice each part separately before combining them to create a cohesive performance.
Have fun playing! 😃
