Complicated Music Writing Question

Author: BGBG
Date: 2016-05-14 08:35

If anyone has a way to listen to the Jim Reeves recording of Adios, Amigo I need to know how to write the timing of the first line after the introduction, or "Adios.........friend"the way he SINGS it which does NOT seem to be the way sheet music shows it. I do not have a deep knowledge of music timing writing but it seems like it is in 3/4 time and a measure has something like a triplet with a half note to make up the 3 beats. Is it possible to have a quarter note triplet with the third note a bridge to a half note? That is what it seems to need. I transposed some sheet music to key of C and I want to write it like it is sung but dont know how. Have the correct notes but dont know how to put it on the staff in the timing in which it is sung. If I said all that correctly maybe someone knows how to do this. An example of first 5 notes on staff or how to get a triplet and half note to fit a 3 beat measure. It is like A-di-os sounding like triplet but -os extended to 3 beats. Could be wrong but that is how I hear it. Easy to find a free MP3 download but I took it from an old album. Maybe I just dont know how to divide the notes into measures and write it. Could be 2 quarter rests and 2 eighth notes measure , then a whole note measure. But not sure. I will keep working on it and an opinion would help.
