Moon River (beginner) free Harmonica Tabs & Lesson

Hello! In today's harmonica lesson we're looking at Moon River (by Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer) on a C harmonica. This was made famous by Audrey Hepburn in 'Breafast at Tiffany's'. No bends so an easy one for beginners to try. Good luck!


Here are the harp tabs:


6 -8 7 -7 -6 6 -5 6

Moon river, wider than a mile

4 -7 -6 6 -5 6 4 -4

I'm crossin' you in style some day

5 4 6 5 -4 4 6 5

Old dream maker, you heartbreaker

-4 4 5 6 7 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 -6

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way


6 -8 7 -7 -6 6 -5 6

Two drifters, off to see the world

4 -7 -6 6 -5 6 4 -4

There's such a lot of world to see

5 4 5 6 7 -8 7 6

We're after the same rainbow's end

-7 -6 6 -5 6

Waitin' round the bend

4 -7 -6 6 -5 6

My huckleberry friend

4 -5 -4 5 4

Moon River and me

Thanks for studying with me today. I hope you enjoyed learning this song!
