Guitar Tab

This is a beautiful piece that I discovered on a tape
done by Christopher Parkening. I was unable to find
the tablature out there so I had to do it myself. I
believe the timing is correct although the piece is
played with a lot of change in speed and expression.
If you can find the tape then as usual, considering
this is tablature, you can get a better feel for
the piece. However I have tried to tab the "generic"
timing but encourage the player to be expressive.

Also this piece is relatively not that difficult to
play.
