When you download a PDF for this song, you will encounter a few specific musical notation symbols that are crucial to nailing the performance.
On the original recording, the notes are not all equal. The first note of each beat is accented (played louder). Use “dynamic markings” on your PDF. Write a small > (accent mark) over the first note of every four-note grouping.
Wait – that looks complex. In a standard PDF, this is written in 16th notes.
