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. There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
    He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
    Most people look at him with terror and with fear
    But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
    He could preach the Bible like a preacher
    Full of ecstasy and fire
    But he also was the kind of teacher
    Women would desire

    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Lover of the Russian queen
    There was a cat that really was gone
    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Russia's greatest love machine
    It was a shame how he carried on

    He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Tsar
    But the kazachok he danced really wunderbar
    In all affairs of state he was the man to please
    But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
    For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
    Though she'd heard the things he'd done
    She believed he was a holy healer
    Who would heal her son

    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Lover of the Russian queen
    There was a cat that really was gone
    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Russia's greatest love machine
    It was a shame how he carried on

    [Spoken:]
    But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
    For power became known to more and more people
    The demands to do something about this outrageous
    Man became louder and louder

    "This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies
    But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"
    No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
    Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
    Then one night some men of higher standing
    Set a trap, they're not to blame
    "Come to visit us" they kept demanding
    And he really came

    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Lover of the Russian queen
    They put some poison into his wine
    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Russia's greatest love machine
    He drank it all and said "I feel fine"

    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Lover of the Russian queen
    They didn't quit, they wanted his head
    RA RA RASPUTIN
    Russia's greatest love machine
    And so they shot him till he was dead

    [Spoken:] Oh, those Russians...
