Super Mario RPG - Weapons Factory

.....I really hate it when life forces me into a hiatus. How long ago was Persona? XD

Anyway, fair warning, the nature of this song forced me to structure this kind of... weirdly. It's probably nothing much, but everything is explained in the tab itself. Just trust me on this one.

It's alternating measures of

It's alternating measures of 7/8 and 6/8. Or, if you prefer, 13/8.

(In sheet music, you could write it in 13/8 and use a dotted sub-measure division after the 7th note to show how it's divided up, but people don't often do that in tabs.)

Here's your tuxguitar file with alternating 7/8 and 6/8: http://auriplane.net/weapons13.tg

This way it should match up and not screw with your timing. Just count to 7, count to 6, and repeat :-)

This song is pretty good! I haven't played this game since around when it came out, so I don't remember much of the music (except for the forest theme!)

Right now I'm finding it easiest to play if I count it like:

One and Two and uh Three and
One and Two and Three and

So the "uh" is the extra eighth note.
