Every little bit goes a little of a long way.

Life gets hard and I'm headed for the highway home, home

So tell me, tell me, tell me, what am I to do

The Scale is a C-major over 2 octaves (starting in C majorC). 3 first time just from the top and down
last time, dubble the tempo (if you can(?), I'can't, but I dont think its impossible) and
do it first down and then up again.
