        connsaxman_jim, i think he may have been referring to the beatles tune, not the traditional. i could be wrong, but the traditional seems too easy not to be able to figure out. i think a mad solo, embelishing the beatles tune would impress anyone. it's a sweet tune. if that is the case, a lot of music stores have beatles books for all instruments(as well as other artists). take a look there. ~Firk

          Well, to someone who has an ear for music who has been playing a while, it's easy, but to a beginning player, maybe it's not so easy. He said Happy Birthday, not Birthday, by the Beatles. That song is really pretty simple too. Play around with this and you'll get it. This is in C, so it should be easiest to figure out. Play the lower case letters in a lower octave, the upper case letters are the lead. You'll see what I mean. |c c e g bflat a, G C C Bb Eb C| c c e g bflat a, G C C Bb Eb C| f f a c eflat a C F F C Ab C| c c e g bflat a , CC Bb Eb C| g g b d f e c D D C F D| c c e g bflat a a C C Bb Eb C. And I think you'll get the rest from here!
