let's start at the very beginning |
|
a very good place to start |
|
when you read you begin with |
|
abc |
|
when you sing you begin with |
|
do re mi |
|
do re mi |
|
do re mi |
|
the first three notes just happen to be |
|
do re mi |
|
do re mi |
|
do re mi fa sol la ti |
|
let's see if i can make it easier |
|
do - a deer a female deer |
|
re - a drop of golden sun |
|
mi - a name i call myself |
|
fa - a long long way to run |
|
sol- a needle pulling thread |
|
la - a note to follow so |
|
ti - a drink with jam and bread |
|
that will bring us back to do |
|
oh oh oh |
|
do - a deer a female deer |
|
re - a drop of golden sun |
|
mi - a name i call myself |
|
fa - a long long way to run |
|
sol- a needle pulling thread |
|
la - a note to follow so |
|

|
a deer a female deer |
|
re - a drop of golden sun |
|
mi - a name i call myself |
|
fa - a long long way to run |
|
sol- a needle pulling thread |
|
la - a note to follow so |
|
ti - a drink with jam and bread |
|

|
do re mi fa sol la ti do sol do! |
|
now children, do re mi fa sol and so on are natur'ly the tunes we use |
|
to build a song once you have these notes in your head you can sing |
|
a million diff'rent tune by mixin' them up, like this: |
|
sol do la fa mi do re |
|
can you do that? |
|
sol do la fa mi do re |
|
sol do la ti do re do |
|
sol do la ti do re do |
|
now let's put it all together |
|
sol do la fa mi do re |
|
sol do la ti do re do |
|
good! |
|
but it doesn't mean anything... |
|
so we put in words, |
|
one word for ev'ry note, like this: |
|
when you know the notes to sing |
|
you can sing most anything. |
|
