Tabber's comments: I've been playing this song for over 3 years now and 
I just realized that I've been playing a particular part of the song wrong 
(after i've listened to the OST) Lol. I've fixed it and now the tab is 
accurate to a T. This is a novice tab and I frequently use it to teach 
students finger picking. Listen/practice with the OST to understand the 
timing; remember you don't have to follow the CHORDS exactly. Finger 
placement is based on the artists' comfort (for instance, Instead of using 
all three fingers on the last chord, you may just use an index finger to bar 
them all since they are on the same fret)
