The tab

Each line is a string: high e on top, low E at the bottom. The number is the fret to press, and 0 means play the string open. Read left to right, one note at a time. The small numbers count the notes.

Through the Fire and Flames tab, 35 notes. The same tab is written out note by note in the list after it.

How to practice it

Practice mode in Lark slows the song down and loops the part you keep missing, while it listens to every note.

  1. Start slow

    Practice mode plays the click at 0.5x (100 BPM), 0.75x (150 BPM) or 1x (200 BPM). Stay at half speed until you stop missing, then step up.

  2. Loop the hard part

    Set a loop around any stretch of notes and it repeats until you have it. A good first loop: notes 6 to 9, the busiest stretch in this tab (frets 8, 15, 11, 15 on the high e string).

  3. Play it and watch the score

    Lark listens through your mic. Every note turns green when you hit it and red when you miss, your accuracy updates as you go, and you see if you came in on the beat, late or slow.

  4. Read the coach's note

    When the song ends, the AI coach reads your run and gives you one specific thing to fix before the next one.
