Serah's Theme - Final Fantasy XIII Soundtrack
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: The MAN
Notes: This is a finer version of the theme to FFXIII. I have done a tab
prior to this one including just the melody in a higher octave with no base
notes or accompanying chords along with a list of the lyrics and alternate
chords that are designed to be easier to sing along to. This version is
meant to sound better on solo guitar (which would include 99.99% of you).
This is the only song I've ever tabbed, but as far as I know it's 100%
accurate and 100% authentic. The song has a beautiful melody like all Final
Fantasy soundtracks; I hope you enjoy it!
Tuning:EADGBe

*For this section of the song I like to play more slowly, strumming from
the lowest indicated string with my thumb up to the highest indicated
string. There are a few parts where I go back to plucking the chords rather
than strumming.
