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. Somewhere in the world there is a father and a mother
    And the father is a son, who has a mother
    The mother has a daughter who gets married to the brother of a mother
    And they all just tryna multiply with one another

    'Cause that's just the way of the world
    It never ends till the end, then you start again
    That's just the way of the world
    That's just the way of the world

    Somewhere in the world they think they're working for themselves
    They get up everyday to go to work for someone else
    And somebody works for them and so they think they've got it made
    But they're all just working to get paid the very same

    And so they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
    Skiddly-dee-da-dum
    They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
    Skiddly-dee-da-dum-dum
    And so they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
    Skiddly-dee-da-dum
    (Skiddly-dee-da-dum)
    They gonna keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
    Skiddly-dee-da-dum-dum

    Somewhere in the world you got a robber and a bank
    And the bank robbed the people, so the people rob the bank
    And the police came to get him but they let him get away
    'Cause they're all just workin' to get paid the very same

    'Cause that's just the way of the world
    It never ends till the end, then you start again
    That's just the way of the world
    That's just the way of the world

    And so they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
    Skiddly-dee-da-dum

    Don't believe everything that you hear
    Let it go through your left and right ear
    Don't just march to the beat of that drum
    Don't be one of them people just twiddlin' them thumbs

    'Cause that's just the way of the world
    It never ends till the end and then you start again
    That's just the way of the world
    That's just the way of the world

    And so they keep on twiddlin' them thumbs
