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. Here I am waiting
    I'll have to leave soon
    Why am I holding on?
    We knew this day would come
    We knew it all along
    How did it come so fast?

    This is our last night but it's late
    And I'm trying not to sleep
    'Cause I know, when I wake, I will have to slip away

    And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
    But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
    'Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
    But tonight I need to hold you so close

    Here I am staring
    At your perfection
    In my arms, so beautiful
    The sky is getting bright,
    The stars are burning out
    Somebody slow it down

    This is way too hard, 'cause I know
    When the sun comes up I will leave
    This is my last glance that will soon be a memory

    And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
    But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
    'Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
    But tonight I need to hold you so close

    I never want it to stop
    Because I don't wanna start all over
    Start all over
    I was afraid of the dark
    But now it's all that I want
    All that I want, all that I want

    And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
    But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
    'Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
    But tonight I need to hold you so close

    And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
    But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
    'Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
    But tonight I need to hold you so close
