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. [Macklemore:]
    I know you moved onto someone new
    Hope life is beautiful
    You were the light for me to find my truth
    I just wanna say, thank you

    [Dan Caplen:]
    Leaving to find my soul
    Told her I had to go
    And I know it ain't pretty
    When our hearts get broke
    Too young to feel this old
    Watching us both turn cold
    Oh, I know it ain't pretty
    When two hearts get broke
    Yeah, I know it ain't pretty
    When two hearts get broke

    [Jess Glynne:]
    I hope someday
    We'll sit down together
    And laugh with each other
    About these days, these days
    All our troubles
    We'll lay to rest
    And we'll wish we could come back to these days
    These days
    These days, these days
    These days, these days

    [Dan Caplen & Jess Glynne:]
    Three years of ups and downs
    Nothing to show for it now
    And I know it ain't pretty when the fire burns out
    Calling me when I'm drunk
    Remind me of what I've done
    And I know it ain't pretty when you're trying to move on, yeah

    I hope someday
    We'll sit down together
    And laugh with each other
    About these days, these days
    All our troubles
    We'll lay to rest
    And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days

    Oh I know, I know
    Oh I know, I know
    Oh I know, I know
    These days, these days
    Oh I know, I know
    Oh I know, I know
    Oh I know, I know
    To these days, these days

    [Macklemore:]
    Cigarettes in the ashtray
    Reminiscing on those past days
    I thought you'd end up with my last name
    But that changed
    And I traveled around the world
    Think where you living at now?
    I heard you moved to Austin
    Got an apartment and settled down
    And every once in a while
    I start texting
    Write a paragraph
    But then I delete the message
    Think about you like a past time
    I could cry you a river
    Get you baptised or
    I wasn't ready to act right
    Used to always think I'd get you back, right
    They say that things fall apart
    We were gonna move to Brooklyn
    You were gonna study Art
    Love is just a tool
    To remind us who we are
    And that we are not alone
    And we're walking in the dark

    [Jess Glynne & Dan Caplen:]
    I hope someday
    We'll sit down together
    And laugh with each other
    About these days, these days
    All our troubles
    We'll lay to rest
    And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days
    We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days
