Letter Notes For Songs
Music Notes For A Few Oldies Pop Songs, Suitable for tin whistle, recorder, piano keyboard with right hand, flute and banjo / mandolin.This is a simple form of music and is ideal for people who don't read sheet music. I have given the key for most.
The key of D would have two sharps and the key of G has one. The key of C has no sharps or flats. If playing a whistle in the key of D then the F note is already a sharp # note anyway. Most of these were set for a tin whistle and are nearly all in the key of D or G. So generally when you see an F / f note you'll know it's sharp. I have now included a second page of Piano Letter Notes For Pop Songs here .
All the notes in CAPITAL letters are the one's up to the middle B and all the notes in lower case letters are the high notes past B. This goes for all music instruments. If your right handed play the notes with your right hand and if your left handed then play with your left. Don't forget to check out the pop songs on tin whistle .

Lord, I'm coming home to you
Home Means Nevada
The verses of this song are straight forward with all the F and C notes being sharp.
In the chorus there's a couple of E # notes and you should half close that E note.
Also in the chorus you'll see a cn, this means the c is natural and not sharp
A d d d c B B A F D
Way out in the land of the setting sun,
D E F D E E D
Where the wind blows wild and free,
E F G B B E F G B B
There's a love-ly spot, just the on-ly one
A B c A B E A
That means home sweet home to me.

If you follow the old Kit Car-son trail,
D E F D E E D

E F G B B E F G B B
Oh you cer-tain-ly will a-gree with me,
A B c A F E B A
It's the place of a thou-sand thrills.

Home means Ne-va-da

Home means the hills,

Home means the sage and the pine.

Out by the Truckee, sil-ver-y rills,

Out where the sun al-ways shines,

Here is the land which I love the best,
