The AUTHOR to this tab would be Mike Miazgowicz. I am not credited for this tab nor any of the work done by Miazgowicz. I simply posted this tab because I have found no dependable or "successful" tab of Trigun's Rakuen. So this is in honor of Mike's effort and his magnificent efforts of recreating the song. Thank you. Once again, I am not the creator of the tab. #-------------------------PLEASE NOTE-------------------------# # This file is the author's own work and represents their # # interpretation of the song.

Its a nice, mellow song and sounds great on an acoustic or classical guitar. I believe the original version is playing using a different guitar tuning (possibly an open tuning), but it is tabbed below using the standard EADGBE tuning. A note on the timing: the dots above each staff represent quarter note beats. For the most part, I've tried to match the tempo of the song as close as possible. For typographical reasons, however, the hammer-ons, pull-offs and slides cannot be precisely timed, so use your own sense or just listen to the original if you run into any problems. See the bottom of the page for an explanation of the symbols I used. For quick reference: The song is essentially comprised of multiple distinct phrases that I've named in brackets above the staves. The ordering of these phrases is as follows: Intro - Fill 1 - Fill 2 (x2) - Chorus (x4) - Fill 1 - Chorus 1 (x3) Fill 3 - Fill 2 (x2) - Chorus 2 - Refrain (x2) - Fill 4 - Fill 5 Fill 3 - Fill 2 (x2) - Chorus 2 - Refrain (x3) - Fill 6 - Fill 1 - Outro ============================================================================= {Intro . . . . . . . . . . . .
