  Lifestream, by Nobuo Uematsu from Final Fantasy VII. One of the most beautiful, simple and understated
  pieces in the game. It is also partially heard in the opening bars to ~Opening Theme~ Bombing Mission. 

  Here I have tabbed it out to be played on a single guitar, although it sounds great as a duet as well
  with a few modifications (that can be found in the Guitar Pro file). 

Time Signature: 3/4
Tempo: 80 BPM slowly, gently
Capo: 1st Fret


Intro:

  The intro was actually the trickiest bit to tab out, but all the notes are there and as such you should 
  just play through it how you see fit. The opening is the backing synth, and sounds great played with 
  on a second guitar with a soft tremolo picking through the first 15 bars.
