This things like a friggin book. It's still a great song. Check the way

bottom for additional notes.

Obviously kind of copied from other tabs of this song. I found all the tabs

out there for this song partially correct, but this is what I play and it sounds

fine to me/ all my friends who've listened to me play it, but its not 100% correct.

This songs surprisingly easy to play. Its mostly made up of the following verse;

so start with the following

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

followed by the same thing, except

-------------------------------|--------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0-----------------|----0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2--|----------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2-----|-------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------|0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------|------------------------------------------------------

|

|

Right Here is where the different endings come in

This "format" is used througout the entire song, and unless I say "play this" assume that

after you play the verse, you play about half the verse again and add on an ending.

Different Endings (In order)

Each set is a different ending

---------------0----------0----

------------0-----0-------0----

---------2-----------2----1----

------2----------------2--2----

-------------------------------

--0----------------------------

------------------------

-----------5--------4---

--------4-----4---------

-----4-----------4------

--2-----------------2---

------------------------

------------------------------------------------

---------------0-----0-----2-----------2--------

--------0------------------------4-----------3--

-----2------------2-----------2-----------2-----

------------------------------------------------

--0--------0------------2-----------2-----------

--------2------------------------2---------

-----2--------2---------------2-----2------

-----------------3--------------------3----

--------------------4-------------------4--

------------------------2--4---------------

--2--------2-------------------------------

------------------------------------------------

---------------0-----0-----2-----------2--------

--------0------------------------4-----------3--

-----2------------2-----------2-----------2-----

------------------------------------------------

--0--------0------------2-----------2-----------

--------------------2-----------

-------0----------2---2---------

-----2---2-1------------3-------

---0---------2-4----------4-----

-2------------------------------

--------------------------------

Right after that last ending, you should hear the singers voice kinds of change and

same with the guitar, its almost a completely different feel to the song;

so instead of playing the normal riff;

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

you play this;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------0--------0-3--------2------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2---------2-----------2--------4--2-----2--

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------0---------4--------2----

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2-----------------------------

--3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------

and just like before, you play this

-------------------------------|--------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0-----------------|----0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2--|----------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2-----|-------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------|0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------|------------------------------------------------------

Right Here is where the endings come in

Different endings

--------------0----------------------0------------

-----------0-----0----------------0-----0---------

--------2-----------2----------2-----------2------

-----0----------------0-----2----------------2----

--2----------------------0------------------------

--------------------------------------------------

Then the next verse, like the last, is this;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------0--------0-3--------2------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2---------2-----------2--------4--2-----2--

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------0---------4--------2----

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2-----------------------------

--3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------

but the ending comes sooner, so its this;

-----------------------------------------------

--------------0-------------------------10----- Hold the 10, this is where the

--------2---------2---------2-----7--9--------- singer says "Zutto" (Always or

-----0----------0--------2-----7--------------- forever) Then start playing the

----------------------0------------------------ normal verse, like so;

--3--------3-----------------------------------

(This is the little intermision where the guitar plays and the singer takes a break,

gotta prep up for that crazy "ah" part)

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

with the first ending;

---------------0---------------------

------------0-----0-------0----------

---------2-----------2---------------

------2----------------2--2----------

--------------------------2----------

--0----------------------------0-2-3- NOTE THE 0-2-3

------------------------

-----------5------5--4--

--------4-------4----4--

-----4--------4------4--

--2------------------2--

------------------------

Then the singer starts singing again, cuz thats what shes paid to do, you gotta play too,

no break for the guitarist.

so start with the normal verse,

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

use the common ending

------------------------------------------------

---------------0-----0-----2-----------2--------

--------0------------------------4-----------3--

-----2------------2-----------2-----------2-----

------------------------2-----------2-----------

--0--------0------------------------------------

play the verse again

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

then the ending is

--------------0-----------------------2-----------

-----------0-----0-----------------0-----2--------

--------2-----------2-----------2-----------3-----

-----0-----------------0-----0-----------------4--

--2-----------------------2-----------------------

--------------------------------------------------

Then play the other type of verse,

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------0--------0-3--------2------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2---------2-----------2--------4--2-----2--

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------0---------4--------2----

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2-----------------------------

--3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------

then add on the ending; (so the entire next part would be)

------------------------------------------------------0---------------0------------

-------------0---------------------0----------------0---0-----------0---0----------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2--------2-------2-------2-------2--------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------0---0-----------0------

----------------------0--------0-------------2----------------0--------------------

--3-------3------------------------------------------------------------------------

then play (just like before)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------0--------0-3--------2------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2---------2-----------2--------4--2-----2--

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------0---------4--------2----

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2-----------------------------

--3-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------------

then play the first ending, making the entire last 'normal' verse (un until

after the "ahs" part) this;

----------------------------------------0--------------

-------------0------------------------0---0--------0---

-------2-----------2--------2-------2-------0------1---

-----0----------0--------2--------2-----------2----2---

----------------------0-------------------------2------

--3-------3--------------------0-----------------------

Choir Ahs part;

----------2------------------------3--------------------2-------------------------------

----------------3------------------------3--0---------3------3-------------3---2--------

-------4-----------4------------0-------------------2----------2---------2--------2-----

-----4----------------4------4-----------------4--0-------0------4-----2-------------4--

--2----------2------------------------------------------------------0--------0----------

-------------------------3------------3-------------------------------------------------

----------3------------------------3---------------------------0---------------0---------

----------------3--0---------------------3--0-----------3----------3-----2-------0--2---

-------4------------------------0-------------------------2------2-----2---2----------2-

-----4----------------4------4-----------------4------2---------------------------------

--2----------2-------------------------------------0--------0--------0---------0--------

-------------------------3------------3-------------------------------------------------

Just keep playing this until the singers almost done, oh man shes great, and then play the normal

verse

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------0----------------------

-------------0---------------------0------------------0-----0--------0--2--0--2-

-------2-----------2--------2------------2---------2-----------2----------------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------0-----------------0-------------

----------------------0--------0-------------2----------------------------------

--3-------3---------------------------------------------------------------------

then kind of slow down a bit

---------------------------------------------------2-----------------2---------------

-------------0---------------------0---------------------3--0-----2--------2---------

-------2-----------2--------2------------2------------------------------------2------

-----0----------0--------2------------2---------4--------------------------------4---

----------------------0--------0-------------2--------2--------0--------0------------

--3-------3--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Slow down

----------------------------------0--------------------

-------------0-----------------0-----0-----------4h5p4-

-------2-----------2--------2-----------2--------4-----

-----0----------0--------2-----------------2-----4-----

----------------------0--------------------------2-----

--3-------3--------------------------------------------

Final Notes: This song took me like a week, so its not that hard. Just do lots of bar stuff,

don't move your fingers around that much, and concentrate. I use a pick, but it would

probably be easier with your fingers.

Lyrics:

|

JAPANESE | ENGLISH

|

Itokenai te ni tsutsunda | Held in young hands,

Furueteru sono hikari o | That light is shivering

Koko made tadotte kita | I've come all this way

Jidai no fuchi o samayoi | Wandering the edge of time

|

Sagashitsuzukete kita yo | I came still searching

Namae sae shiranai keredo | I don't even know your name, but

Tada hitotsu no omoi o | One little feeling

Anata ni tewatashitakute | I just wanted to hand over to you

|

Toki wa ai mo itami mo | Sometimes I catch and hold

Fuku dakitome | Love and pain, tightly in my arms

Keshite yuku kedo | It will fade away, but

Watashi wa oboete iru | I'll remember

Zutto... | Forever...

|

Watashi no mune no oku ni | It'd been echoing in my chest

Itsukara ka hibiite ita... | For who knows how long...

Yotsuyu no shizuku yori mo | Though it's a whisper tinier

Kasukana sasayaki dakedo | Than a drop of evening fog

|

Itetsuku hoshi no yami e | Toward the darkness of frozen stars

Tsumugu inori ga | A spinning prayer

Tô anata no sora ni | May it reach to your distant skies...

Todoku yô ni... |

-------------------Additional Notes---------------------------------------

A lot of this, for me, is improv. For example, instead of playing this;

--------------0----------------------0------------

-----------0-----0----------------0-----0---------

--------2-----------2----------2-----------2------

-----0----------------0-----2----------------2----

--2----------------------0-------------------------

---------------------------------------------------

I'll pick up the pace a bit and play this;

-----------------------0------------

---------0-----------0---0---0---0--

-----2-----2---2---2-------2---2----

---0---0-----0---2------------------

-2----------------------------------

------------------------------------

Same with the last part,

----------2------------------------3--------------------2-------------------------------

----------------3------------------------3--0---------3------3-------------3---2--------

-------4-----------4------------0-------------------2----------2---------2--------2-----

-----4----------------4------4-----------------4--0-------0------4-----2-------------4--

--2----------2------------------------------------------------------0--------0----------

-------------------------3------------3-------------------------------------------------

Instead of playing this ending

---------------0---------------0--------

--------3----------3-----2-------0--2---

----------2------2-----2---2----------2-

-----2----------------------------------

---0--------0--------0---------0--------

----------------------------------------

Play something like this
