  • Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
     
    If anyone has seen the movie Taken, this was in the end credits.
  • The original song is actually about 6 minutes long but I'm tabbing the
    movie version where it starts about half-way through the song with the
    piano solo.
  •  
    *UPDATED! Piano part is now included in tab form for those wishing to
    play it on guitar. It's at the end of the original tab, scroll down.
  • If you want the sheet music of the piano part, let me know as I've
    written it out.

  • That's all, it's quite simple. Piano bit's a difficult though since it's
    not meant to be played on guitar but it's there for those without a piano.
    Also, if you're looking for the first half of the original song,
  • there's a nice guitar pro tab somewhere on 911 tabs.
