Okay, that one worked on my computer.

Unfortunately, I don't have the facilities to record the demo for you, but the good news is that the song follows a very simple pattern and in a very simple key and I can outline that for you if that is any use to you...

The pattern is:

Am, G, C, G

The song follows a broken chord-like accompaniment (i.e. not playing the tune as the singer does that herself).

I know it's not exactly what you want but hopefully this is some use to you.

well it's far from difficult, you already know the chord progression so i would say experiement with that, it's only broken chords that's being played at a slow tempo... if you wanted that sound though that would be different, it's being played on a synth with a piano sound and a pad, strings with a soft vibe sound... you would have to experiment

Sorry, but wht is Am?

And if possible, could you please kindly tell me what notes my right and lefts fingers should be clicking? but i understand that you can't upload it with video, but at least let me know the notes in format like A,B,C,D,E,F,G and Flat keys too.

I mean like this:

Am means "A minor".

I'll outline the basic notation. LH = Left Hand, RH = Right Hand

Am:
LH: A,
RH:E, A, C

G:
LH: G,
RH:D, G, B

C:
LH: C,
RH:E, G, C

G:
LH: G,
RH:D, G, B

This will give you basic progression and the general sound of the song but as the song isn't in English and I don't have video recording gear, I can't really specify exactly what notes you play as well as indicatig their duration.

Have a look for this book: Bob Kropel's creative keyboard's deluxe encyclopedia of piano chords.

I got in with a ring binder spine - so I can open it on the key in question - makes it easy to look at what chord in what key etc...
Learning, but really enjoying!
