Harmonica Notes on Hohner Silverstar 10 Hole Diatonic Key C Harmonica

I bought a Hohner Silverstar Key C Harmonica some months before and I have been playing my Harmonica since then. My Harmonica is Key of C. I am learning some songs on my Harmonica and trying my best to practice them so that they sound natural.


Below are some images of my Hohner Silverstar 10 Hole Key C Harmonica which I love to play a lot.



I didn't have much knowledge about Harmonica but recently while listening to some songs and noticing some special music rhythms, I found that it was harmonica and then I started searching for its various sounds on internet and became a fan of it.

Here on this page, I am sharing notes for some songs on Key C of a 10 hole diatonic Harmonica.
(Here, -5 means draw air from hole number 5 and 6 means blow air in hole number 6)

Moondance (by Van Morrison)

5 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6 5
Well it`sa marvelous night for a Moondance

-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6
With the stars up above in your eyes

-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6 5
A fantabulous night to make romance

5 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6
`Neath the cover of October skies

5 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6 5
And all the leaves on the trees are falling

-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6
To the sound of the breezes that blow

-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6 5
And I`m trying to please to the calling

-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low

-6 -7 7 -9 9 -9 8 -6 -7 7 -8 7
And all the night`s magic seems to whisper

-8 8
and hush

-6 -7 7 -99-9 8 -6 -7 7 -8
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine

7 -8 8
in your blush CHORUS

-10 9 8 -10 8 7 -8 7 -8 7 -8 7 -8 7 -8 -6
Can I just have one a` more Moondance with you

-6 -6 -10 9 9 -10 8 7 -8 7 -8 7 8
my love? Can I just make some more romance

-8 7-8 7 -6 -6
with a you my love?



Oh Susanna


4 -4 5 6 6-6 6 5
Well I come from Al-a-bam-a


4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4
with my ban-jo on my knee;


4-4 5 6 6 -6 6 5
I'm goin' to Lou-'si-an-a


4-4 5 5 -4 -4 4
M-y true love for to see.


4-4 5 6 6 -6 6 5 4
I-t rained all night the day I left


-4 5 5 -4 4 -4
The weath-er it was dry;


4 -4 5 6 6 -6 6 5 4
Th-e sun so hot I froze to death,

-4 5 5 -4 -4 4
Su-san-na, don't you cry.


-5 -5 -6 -6 -6 6 6 5 4 -4
Oh, Su-san-na, oh, don't you cry for me;


4 -4 5 6 6-6 6 5
I-ve come from Al-a-bam-a


4 -4 5 5 -4 -4 4
with my ban-jo on my knee.

I hope these notes will provide you help in learning these songs. I wish I could upload the actual soundtracks also which I have for some songs (you will be able learn only when you have soundtracks for these songs and by hearing which, you can actually play the above notes as you heard them in the songs), so, in case you cant find them on internet, feel free to mail me on wahid311@gmail.com. I will upload them and give you appropriate link or attach you and mail you.
