Inversions are chords where the notes are played in a different order. Songs with a combination of major and minor chords - which to be fair is most of them - will not only teach you how to swap between major and minor shapes from a muscle-memory point of view, but will also serve to illustrate how using both types can affect the overall sound and mood of a chord progression. This way, you’ll be able to play whole songs with only a couple of chords under your belt. So to begin with, when finding songs to practise, it makes sense to seek out tunes that contain relatively few chords. Once you've mastered playing triads, you'll be able to attempt a basic version of pretty much any song there is. Triads are the basic, three-note chords made up of a root note, a fifth and a minor or major third in the middle.
How much cooler would it be if you were able to incorporate scales into the context of playing an actual song? So try looking for songs whose melodies are made up of runs up and down the major or minor scales to make practising them a bit less of a chore.
Everyone knows that scales are an important part of the keyboard learning process, but practising them isn't the most exciting thing on earth.
