~The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker~
Composed By: Koji Kondo

*notes: Listen to the original recording, the midi, or look at the pdf/gp files
        to see where the tempo changes are. This is a transcription for the most
        part, however when the famous zelda theme comes in I changed it around a
        bit because I felt the version that was played was a bit boring. I hope
        you enjoy it.*

Very nice. I wasn't able to play this when you first submitted but now I can and it sounds great. You really like to end your tabs on that A chord don't you? lol

Hum, I guess? Though in this case it really does end on an A chord.

Well, you know what I mean.

Well, you know what I mean. An A chord with another A on top of it. I noticed you like to end on that a lot.

Yeah, I guess it's mostly that I like for endings in pieces like this to raise up somewhat, and finish on an...uplifting feeling I guess. So the melodic line follows up to the A.

You're a great musician. I

You're a great musician. I think it's wonderful that you took the time to make sure that everyone has a chance to learn the peices. You offered multiple ways, and guitar pro is one of the best. Version 5.2 sucks lol don't EVER upgrade!!!

okay, i know this is guitar "tabs", but could you put this in treble clef sheet music, or list note names. this will sound silly, but i don't play guitar, but i love this song, especially the way it is composed here, and would like to play this on piano or saxophone. By the way, 5 stars!

Amazing arrangement, Kabuki. Captures the epicness and melancholy of the original.
