Perfect Strangers Theme (Season 1-2)
Transcribed by Dan Morris (dmorris@cs.stanford.edu)

This song is wildly orchestrated (it was the 80's; elementary
school plays were wildly orchestrated), so this is a guitar
arrangement more than a transcription.  Chords that are only
weakly implied are in parentheses.
