I use a smaller breadboard with less rows, but this is actually much better for more notes.

Circuit Diagram

Here's the circuit diagram, the piezo buzzer's black wire is the +side and the red one is the - side of the buzzer. Those two wires represent the spot where the pins of the buzzer are attached to the breadboard.

Main code for everything hardware-related and melody.
I keep updating this code, adding to the song til it's done.
