The harmonica part on Billy Joel’s “Piano Man” is a fun and easy song to learn on harmonica. Piano Man, originally released in 1973, was Billy Joel’s first hit song. He recorded it in the key of C, which also makes it a great song for beginners to learn on harmonica… because most of us start learning on a C harmonica!

In this video, I teach how to play this song in 4 levels:
1.) Just learning the harmonica tabs in C.
2.) How to play the right rhythms like a ninja master.
3.) How to play it with single notes, injecting soul and feel with bending.
4.) Putting it all together and playing Piano Man like a total boss.

Here are the harmonica tabs in C for Piano Man:
56 -56 56 -45 45 -45 45
34-34 45 -34 45 -45
56 -56 56 -45 45 -45 45
34 -45 45 -34 34

Single notes harmonica tabs in C for Piano Man:
6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 5
4 -4 5 -4 5 -5
6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 5
4 -5 5 -4 4

Even though Piano Man is a good song for beginners, if today is your very first day playing the harmonica, I’d recommend that you consider first learning the Deep Relaxed Mouth Position.

In my Beginner to Boss course, we actually do 24 lessons before we get to Piano Man, because I believe it’s so important to develop the right fundamentals from the start, and to avoid picking up bad habits.

So don’t hesitate to take some time really getting secure in the Deep Relaxed Mouth Position before you tackle this Piano Man harmonica lesson:
