open finder.
Click Go
Click Go To Folder
Put in this address: ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.com.Notes/Data/Library/Notes/
Right click on the .storedata file and choose open with
Text Edit: applications > Text Edit
Your data is in there. Its messy and mixed in amongst A LOT of computer code.... but you can find your notes in big clumps throughout the code.
copy and paste it into Word and then clean up the code from there.
