My Blue Heaven | Harmonica Lesson + Free Harp Tabs

This is a diatonic harmonica lesson for My Blue Heaven, including video lesson and harp tabs. This one is especially for my old pal Jonathan. I hope you enjoy the lesson!

The tab system

The song is tabbed out for diatonic harmonica (in any key). The symbols I use are pretty basic - positive numbers are blow, negative numbers are draw.



6 -6 -6 6 6 -6 -6 6

Day is ending, birds are wending

5 4 5 4 5 6(->5) 5 4 5 4 5 -6(->6) Back to the shelter of each little nest they love

6 -6 -6 6 6 -6 -6 6 Night shades falling, love birds calling

5 4 5 4 5 4 4 -4 5 6 What makes the world go round? Nothing but love

5 6 -6 7 -6 When whippoorwill calls

4 5 6 -6 6 And evening is nigh

3 -3// 4 5 -4 5 -4 4 I hurry to my blue heaven

5 6 -6 7 -6 I turn to the right

4 5 6 -6 6 A little white light

3 -3// 4 5 -4 5 -4 4 Will lead you to my blue heaven

A smiling face, a fireplace, a cosy room

-7 -7 -6 -6 6 6 -5 6 -5 -5 5 6 A little nest that's nestled where the roses bloom

5 (or 3) 6 -6 7 -6 Just Molly and me

4 5 6 -6 6 And baby makes three

3 -3// 4 5 -4 5 -4 4

We're happy in my blue heaven
