Hello, Is it possible to key in the attached old song, but I like it, Can we tie so long?

Thank you,

Hi Frank,
those long ones aren't ties, they're slurs, and yes you can make them that long, Simply apply a slur property to each intervening note. You can even select all but the last one at once and press <;> to do it.

Hi Warren, having looked at the link, I found the song but there is no long slur like the one I attached. Is the result of sound the same?.

Sometimes it's easier to personalize a song that's already been transcribed rather than start from scratch. Even if the tune is different, you might not have to do much to the lyrics.
