The “Godfather” theme tune is a classic piece of music composed by Nino Rota. The piano notes for the main melody of the theme are as follows:

E D C D E E E D D D E G G E D C D E E E

D D E D C A A B B A G F# G E E D C D E E E

D D E D C A A B B A G F# G E D C D C

To play this song on the piano, you can start by playing the notes in the first line, “E D C D E E E D D D E G G E D C D E E E,” with your right hand. Then, play the notes in the second line, “D D E D C A A B B A G F# G E E D C D E E E,” with your left hand. Continue this pattern of alternating between the right and left hands for the rest of the song.

Note: The letters represent the keys on the piano. C is the white key to the left of a group of two black keys, and the other letters correspond to the keys to the right of the C key in alphabetical order (D, E, F, G, A, B). The “#” symbol represents a black key to the right of the corresponding letter key.
