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. [Chorus:]
    This is the story of a girl
    Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
    And while she looked so sad in photographs
    I absolutely love her
    When she smiles

    Now how many days in a year
    She woke up with hope
    But she only found tears
    And I can be so insincere
    Making her promises never for real
    As long as she stands there waiting
    Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
    Now how many days disappear
    When you look in the mirror
    So how do you choose

    Your clothes never wear as well the next day
    And your hair never falls in quite the same way
    You never seem to run out of things to say

    [Chorus:]
    This is the story of a girl
    Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
    And while she looked so sad in photographs
    I absolutely love her
    When she smiles

    Now how many lovers would stay
    Just to put up with this shit day after day
    Now how did we wind up this way
    Watching our mouths for the words that we say
    As long as we stand here waiting
    Wearing the clothes or the soles that we choose
    Now how do we get there today
    When we're walking too far for the price of our shoes

    Your clothes never wear as well the next day
    And your hair never falls in quite the same way
    But you never seem to run out of things to say

    [Chorus:]
    This is the story of a girl
    Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
    And while she looks so sad and lonely there
    I absolutely love her
    When she smiles

    [Guitar solo]

    Well your clothes never wear as well the next day
    And your hair never falls in quite the same way
    You never seem to run out of things to say

    [Chorus:]
    This is the story of a girl
    Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
    And while she looks so sad in photographs
    I absolutely love her

    This is the story of a girl
    Whose pretty face she hid from the world
    And while she looks so sad and lonely there
    I absolutely love her

    This is the story of a girl
    Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
    And while she looked so sad in photographs
    I absolutely love her
    When she smiles
    When she smiles!
