Quick guide on how to read the letter notes

how to read and play the letter notes
Each group of letter notes is played from left to right, and vertical letters on the same column are played together.

The numbers in front of each line are the octave, each octave has an unique color so you can easily follow them.

Lowercase (a b c d e f g) letters are natural notes (white keys, a.k.a A B C D E F G ).
Uppercase (A C D F G) letters are the sharp notes (black keys a.k.a. A# C# D# F# G#), look at the image below to see where each letter note is on the piano keyboard.

The lines / dashes (-) between letters indicates timing to play the notes. Just listen to the audio file at the top of the post to figure out the time lenght of the dashes (usually 5-6 dashes is about 1 second)

RH / LH means Right Hand / Left Hand and it's mostly for people who play the piano, it tells them with what hand to play the lines. Also, if you want to play a easy version of the song, playing only the RH lines does exactly that, because on most songs RH notes are for melody and LH notes are for bass.

  1. She played the fiddle in an Irish band
    But she fell in love with an English man
    Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
    Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

    I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
    She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar
    She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic ink on your arm?
    Said it was one of my friend's songs do you want to drink on?

    She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun
    She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as shotgun
    Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
    Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know

    She played the fiddle in an Irish band
    But she fell in love with an English man
    Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
    Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

    With my pretty little Galway Girl
    You're my pretty little Galway Girl

    You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
    And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room
    As last orders were called, was when she stood on the stool
    After dancing to Cèilidh, singing to trad tunes
    I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet
    Acapella in the bar using her feet for a beat
    Oh I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week
    And in this packed out room, swear she was singing to me, you know

    She played the fiddle in an Irish band
    But she fell in love with an English man
    Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
    Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

    My pretty little Galway girl
    My my my my my my my Galway girl
    My my my my my my my Galway girl
    My my my my my my my Galway girl

    Now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time
    I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine
    Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
    As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night

    I walked her home then she took me inside
    Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
    I swear I'm going to put you in a song that I write
    About a Galway girl and a perfect night

    She played the fiddle in an Irish band
    But she fell in love with an English man
    Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
    Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

    My pretty little Galway girl
    My my my my my my my Galway girl
    My my my my my my my Galway girl
    My my my my my my my Galway girl
