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. Down by the river by the boats
    Where everybody goes to be alone
    Where you won't see any rising sun
    Down to the river we will run

    When by the water we drink to the dregs
    Look at the stones on the river bed
    I can tell from your eyes
    You've never been by the riverside

    Down by the water the river bed
    Somebody calls you somebody says
    "Swim with the current and float away."
    Down by the river everyday

    Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
    And I don't know why I go the way
    Down by the riverside

    When that old river runs past your eyes
    To wash off the dirt on the riverside
    Go to the water so very near
    The river will be your eyes and ears

    I walk to the borders on my own
    And fall in the water just like a stone
    Chilled to the marrow in them bones
    Why do I go here all alone

    Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
    And I don't know why I go the way
    Down by the riverside

    Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
    And I don't know why I go the way
    Down by the riverside

    Oh oh, I
    Oh oh, I
    Oh oh, I

    Down by the riverside
    Down by the riverside
