Moonlight Sonata First Movement, Op. 27, No. 2 Original Score by Ludwig van Beethoven Tabbed by David Lowmiller Email: dlowmiller@prodigy.net Standard tuning (EBGDAE) Note: This piece must be fingerpicked.

Note: Those are only the first 4 measures of the song. There are a total of 67 measures in all. If anyone is truly interested in this piece, I will tab it out to it's entirety. It's a little tricky, similar in difficulty to "The Nightmare's Beginning" (Vincent Valentine's theme song from Final Fantasy VII) by Nobuo Uematsu. It's a very dark, somber piece, and is quite a technical piece, if not in difficulty of pulling off, then at least in it's function. I mean, come on. it's Beethoven, you know? :)
