Chords
Tabs are a by-ear transcribtion of most resonant tones played by piano and string quartet.
Adjusted for guitar (octave higher in the lead tones, than on the piano), as it is not possible to play all
contrapunctually playing strings.
Chords created with a help of websites Chordify and Praischarts.
Chords extensions and inversions are not essential, but glamorous.
Original in a key of Gb (or F#), modulating to A.
