I think the word "epic" is thrown 
around too much lately. In my mind, 
it means huge and almost
over-dramatic, while still hitting 
you hard, which I think describes 
this song perfectly.

Tabbed for a singer friend of mine. 
This is an interpretation of the 
piano, not a note for
note transcription.

E Standard (finger style)

Bridge 1 (1:00)
...I think you can call it the 
bridge, right?
You can just play straight chords, 
or you can do this.

Outro (2:39)
Same chord structure as Bridge 1, 
goes on till the ending

Okay, I know it looks harsh, but you
 don't need to be some old Spanish 
maestro to do it. Aside from
the first low note, keep a barre at 
the fourth fret and your middle and 
ring finger on the top fifth
frets on the E and B string. Use 
your pinky to hit the low notes. The
 top repeating notes are on
beat, so you shouldn't have too much
 trouble.
