E  (2 beats)
E  (1/2 beat)
F   (1/2 beat)
E  (1/2 beat)
C  (1/2 beat)
C   (2 beats)
A   (2 beats)

Add it up, that should be 12 beats.


Here's the second measure
E  (1 beat)
F  (1 beat)
C  (1 beat)
C  (1 beat)
G  (2 beats)
A  (2 beats)
B  (2 beats)

Again, add it up, that should be 12 beats.

Now the song repeats.[/i]
