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.

Quick guide on how to read the letter notes
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)

What do you see?
ReplyDeleteIs it your own reflection that's staring at you?
An out-of-body perception?
Or some kind of stranger that laughs at a fool?
Is it the world that has changed?
Or is it you at the sound of the knell?
And how did they fail to prepare you
For all that awaits once you're out of your shell?
Oh oh
Feel the cold breeze in your face
Walk on, one way
End of days
Time to face what it's all about
May the waves take you in
A long way from home
You're out on your own
To crave all alone and alone you'll realize
What life turns out to be...
Future ain't what it used to be
When all givens they fall into abeyance
Fall into abeyance
Let it all wash over me
Requiem for a dream
How long have we stayed in concealment
Chilled to the marrow, crept stealthily?
Celestial lights satiating the dark
Of deplorable reality
Every breath towards what shone with a lustre
Horizons that sentineled dreams
Now doesn't it even seem crazy
To be aghast at what things will not be
Oh oh
See the rainbow slowly fade
Walk on, one way
End of days...
Time to face what it's all about
May the waves take you in
A long way from home
You're out on your own
To crave all alone and alone you'll realize
What life turns out to be...
Future ain't what it used to be
Fall into abeyance
Fall into abeyance
Let it all wash over me
Requiem for a dream
There's someone by your side
Four steps behind
Makes sure you keep the pace
And love the grind
Time to face what it's all about
May the waves take you in
A long way from home
You're out on your own
To crave all alone and alone you'll realize
Future ain't what it used to be
And all givens they fall into abeyance
Fall into abeyance
Let it all wash over me
Requiem for a dream
