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. [Intro]
    Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
    Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
    Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
    Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds

    [Verse 1]
    Have it all, rip our memories off the wall
    All the special things I bought
    They mean nothin' to me anymore
    But to you, they were everything we were
    They meant more than every word
    Now I know just what you love me for (Mmm)

    [Pre-Chorus]
    Take all the money you want from me
    Hope you become what you want to be
    Show me how little you care
    How little you care, how little you care
    You dream of glitter and gold
    My heart's already been sold
    Show you how little I care
    How little I care, how little I care

    [Chorus]
    My diamonds leave with you (Mmm)
    You're never gonna hear my heart break (Mmm)
    Never gonna move in dark ways (Mmm)
    Baby, you're so cruel
    My diamonds leave with you (Mmm)
    Material love won't fool me (Mmm)
    When you're not here, I can breathe (Mmm)
    Think I always knew
    My diamonds leave with you (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)

    [Verse 2]
    Shake it off, shake the fear of feeling lost
    Always me that pays the cost
    I should never trust so easily
    You lied to me, lie-lied to me
    Then left with my heart 'round your chest (Mmm)

    [Pre-Chorus]
    Take all the money you want from me
    Hope you become what you want to be
    Show me how little you care
    How little you care, how little you care
    You dream of glitter and gold
    My heart's already been sold
    Show you how little I care
    How little I care, how little I care

    [Chorus]
    My diamonds leave with you (Mmm)
    You're never gonna hear my heart break (Mmm)
    Never gonna move in dark ways (Mmm)
    Baby, you're so cruel
    My diamonds leave with you (Mmm)
    Material love won't fool me (Mmm)
    When you're not here, I can breathe (Mmm)
    Think I always knew
    My diamonds leave with you (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)

    [Post-Chorus]
    Woah-oh (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
    Woah-oh (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
    Always knew
    My diamonds leave with you (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
    Woah-oh (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
    Woah-oh (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
    Always knew (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)

    [Bridge]
    You're never gonna hear my heart break
    Never gonna move in dark ways
    Baby, you're so cruel
    My diamonds leave with you
    Material love won't fool me
    When you're not here, I can breathe
    Think I always knew
    My diamonds leave with you, oh

    [Chorus]
    You're never gonna hear my heart break (Mmm)
    Never gonna move in dark ways (Mmm, oh)
    Baby, you're so cruel (So cruel)
    My diamonds leave with you (Mmm)
    Material love won't fool me (Mmm)
    When you're not here, I can breathe (Mmm)
    Think I always knew
    My diamonds leave with you (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)

    [Post-Chorus]
    Woah-oh (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
    Woah-oh (Diamonds, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds)
