The real notes from a score, both hands, bar by bar. R is the right hand, L the left; C4 is middle C.

The D – Bm7 – F# – F#m – B – G – C – B7 loop with lazy footsteps in the left hand and soft chords in the right. Notes struck together are joined with a plus; C4 is middle C.
How to read the bar sheet
The player above shows the treble staff (right hand) over the bass staff (left hand). Every note is a bar as long as it sounds, at its place on the staff, with its name inside, and the music scrolls past a line that marks now. The chord names run along the top.
Start with the left hand alone at a slow speed, then the right, then both. When the letters feel easy, try the sheet music.
