How do I learn to play a song on the piano for my girlfriend?

first of, you need a piano. try getting a tutor for a simple piano piece. cause i dont think you can play a song by just listening to it if you dont even know how to play a chord

get someone who knows how to play the piano and ask him/her to teach your how to play by memory … if not just record a romantic piano song than play it and pretend to play the piano when the music is playing I did that trick to my g/f ……… and she was impress ……….

Best to get a tutor…especially if you have no idea how to play at all. I will teach you how to play twinkle twinkle little star to get you started.

Sit at the center of the piano, so that you are looking at the manufacturer’s name. You will see there are two black keys, a space, 3 black keys, a space, etc. If you look directly down from the manufacturer’s name, there will be two black keys. The white key on the left hand side of the first of the two black keys is middle C. This note is your bread and butter. (if you’re confused right now….google piano notes and find a labeled picture to help you). The black keys are called “sharps”…and for the time being we’re just going to ignore those completely. The white keys starting from middle C are as follows: C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C (and the pattern repeats up and down). Now, armed with that knowledge…here’s how to play twinkle twinkle little star:

CCGGAAG,FFEEDDC,GGFFEED,
GGFFEED,CCGGAAG,FFEEDDC

I put the commas in there to help you distinguish verses.

So…there you are. You are well on your way to being a pianist.

(I know these are a little out of reach for a beginner….but how about Clare De Lune, or Fur Elise? Everyone knows them…and I think they’re romantic).

Hmmm… it’s gonna take some practice but I have a great place that you can start! Go to and they have 50+ free piano lessons all with flash animated examples. I think you have a great idea, now you just need to invest the time. Good luck!
