This is a really request, but I need the music notes to the ABC Song or the Alpabet song. This is a really big emergency and if any one knows the notes, please e-mail me. I would be greatful. My email is dledoux@e-tex.com

The tune is the same as "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" which is available in lots of children's songbooks.

Dear Hellrose, Is this "A" you're Adorable" (the Alphabet Song) , the Kaye, Wise, and Lippman tune from the 1940's? The sheet music I have is in the key of "C" and the and it begins c-c-d-e-g-b/a-a-b-a-g-e/d-d-csharp-d-e-f sharp-b-a/. (It goes on) Let me know if this is what you need. Yours, Peter

Peter, Thank God ! Those are the notes that I am looking for, You don't know how happy I am! I feel childish, but I need the notes for a computer program that is designed to teach children the alphabet and start them learning how to read. Yours, Hellrose

From: Peter Timmerman

Dear Hellrose, Well, when we left our hero, we'd got to "C" you're a cutie full of charms (ends on "a"), then e-e-e/ to the next segment -- a-a-f-d-f-a/g-g-e-csharp-e-g/f-f-d-b(below c)-d-f-a-g (repeat from the beginning with '"G" you look good to me'. In case you don't have the words to this point (I'll drop the quotation marks throughout):

A you're adorable, B you're so beautiful, C you're a cutie full of charm

D you're a darling, and E you're exciting And F you're a feather in my arms.

G you look good to me, H you're so heavenly, I you're the one I idolize,

J we're like JAck and Jill; K you're so kissable; (new section)

new section: -f-d-b(below c)-c-e-d-c/ (L is the lovelight in your eyes)

d-a-g-c/ (M,N,O,P)

d-e-f-g-a-e/ (I could go on all day)

d-a-g-c/ (Q,R,S,T)

a-c(high)-b-b-b-d-d-g-a-e-e/ (Alpha-betic'lly speaking, you're okay)

c-c-d-e-g-b/-a-a-b-a-b-g-d/ (U made my life complete; V means you're very sweet)

d-e-csharp-d-b-a/ (Double U, X, Y, Z)

c(high)-c(high)-a-f-d-b-a-g-a-g-fsharp-f/ (It's fun to wander through the alphabet with you)

e-d-e-f-g-a-b-c (high) (To tell you what you mean to me!)

I think this is mostly right, when you take away the chords. I hope the way I set it down makes sense. The cute bits to remember are that the first part (to the slash) of "Alpha/beticlly" and "Double/ U" are an eighth followed by a sixteenth note. MNOP and QRST are half notes. Let me know if your computer programme sings better than Kasparov. Yours, Peter
