Notes & Legend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
original tab 7 January 2015 - last update 2 April 2015
thanks to Jeff Kollasch for the following correction - 
measure 3 - upper note of interval changed from G# on 1st string to D#

The lute tuning was probably in G, equivalent to using a capo on the 3rd fret.
Zamboni's pieces are sometimes played with the 3 bottom strings tuned an octave
lower. The guitar sheet fingering tries to reflect the original lute music.

The Divino Kaps video has the bottom strings tuned an octave down.
The Uros Baric video uses a capo on the 4th fret.
The MIDI file is 128 bpm (quarter notes), a little slower than the videos.
The reprise (measures 45-53) isn't played in the vids or the MIDI.

measure 50 - the sheet has the F# on the open string as a dotted half note

===  - note held
h    - hammer on
p    - pull-off
8    - (below the tab) additonal bass note one octave lower in the lute sheet
##   - an ornament is indicated in the original
*    - (above the tab) - start and end of reprise (repeat the last time through)
