Hey there,

don't get discouraged. Just like anything else, you can train your ear. It will not happen overnight so just stick with it and you will get better with time.
Here are my suggestions:
listen to your favorite song, but concentrate only on the bass. Listen to it again, this time only listen to the guitar. Do this for each instrument when you listen to music, it allows you to begin the process of discerning notes.
Do a little research on "relative pitch".
Get a pitch pipe or a keyboard and mark out the notes of the keys. Hum along as you play each note.
Practice your do-re-mi's!
Most important of all, never give up and BE CONFIDENT!

Good luck!
