Father's song melody, piano

i've been at my piano for about 2 hours figuring out what notes to play
i have the live version of father's song so its difficult for me to hear
cause he plays the notes extra fast, i havent figured out the chords, but i can do that once i develop the melody so far i have
D, D-flat, B-flat, D-flat ,B (repeat a second time)
G, G-flat E-Flat, G-flat ,E
D, D-flat, B-flat, D-flat ,B

tell me if this is remotely similar to the original

Yes, I'm sure, I have the song book.

it is the same tune


but the piano version is slower
and more notes are added

the first Bar is not 4 notes

its a five note bar
the riff from computer blue is an alter version to fit the song
its speeded up
and notes were taken out to fit a guitar
The original melody is a tad different but thanks alot

There are more notes, yes, but those are just 'flems' 'trills' 'glitches' or whatever you want to call them.
The notes I gave you are just the basics, and you 'add lib' on hat the way you feel. It comes out different a little in every performance.
