If you're good at Music Theory, reply!

I don't know where to post this, but it's a personal request. I have two sheet musics for 'Mad World' from Donnie Darko. However, neither have the same bars per line, and because of this I can't arrange it. They have the same time signature, c (which is the same as 4/4).

Here's the link to the right hand part:

and the link to the left hand:

Thanks in advance,

I don't see any problems. Just re-write the whole thing bar-by-bar?

I may be misunderstanding your problem. Could you rephrase it if so?

im rubbish at music
but im replying because I can.

Yeah, this music has been very badly written. It's supposed to be in 4/4, but the right hand part has been written in 8/4, and the left hand part has random bars, like 2 and 4, in 1/4. My only advice is to listen to the actual music, and use the sheet music as a guide to try and figure out what the hell it's supposed to be like.

Perhaps you should look for another score on another website? It could be actually correct on another site.

Christ that's messy. I'd definitely go with another site unless you can do it by ear, it's not worth the effort salvaging that when you can almost certainly find it elsewhere
