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.

I hope you don't think I'm rude
ReplyDeleteBut I wanna make out with you
And I'm a little awkward, sure
But I could touch my face to yours, oh
And no one ever called me smooth
But I just wanna see the grooves between your hands, your teeth, oh
Tell me, do you think about me?
I just wanna kiss you
And even if I miss you
At least I'll know what it's like to have held your hand, oh!
No-o, hey!
Bad ideas, ay (oh!)
I know where they lead (hey, oh!)
But I have too many to sleep
And I can't get enough, no
I wanna kiss you standing up
Oh, no!
And if tomorrow makes me low (oh!)
Well it'd be worth it just to know
'Cause I can't get enough, no
I wanna kiss you standing up
O-oh!
Hey!
I don't know what compels me
To do the very thing that fells me
I wake up, still high on you
But by the night I'm crashing through
So why'd I wanna kiss you
Even though I miss you
Guess I just wanted to know what it would feel like, oh!
No-o, hey!
Bad ideas, ay (oh!)
I know where they lead (hey, oh!)
But I have too many to sleep
And I can't get enough, no
I wanna kiss you standing up
Oh, no!
And if tomorrow makes me low (oh!)
Well it'd be worth it just to know
'Cause I can't get enough, no
I wanna kiss you standing up
Oh!
Singing's a bad look on me
And if I'm talking honestly
It takes everything I got not to text, and
I just want a kiss to get me through
'Cause now all my bed-sheets smell like you, so
If you think you miss me
Come on back and kiss me
I just gotta know what you and I would feel like, oh!
No-o, hey!
Yikes
Bad ideas, ay (oh!)
I know where they lead (hey, oh!)
But I have too many to sleep
And I can't get enough, no
I wanna kiss you standing up
Oh, no!
And if tomorrow makes me low (oh!)
Well it'd be worth it just to know
'Cause I can't get enough, no
I wanna kiss you standing up
Hey!
