Battle Theme Final Fantasy 8 Composed by Nobuo Uematsu Tabbed by Richard Schaefer (richard@gametabs.net) 3/12/07 The intro is really just a repetition of the note "D" played various ways. The next part is basically a string ensamble and a trumpet. I tabbed them seperately here, so it's not exaclty in order. But if you listen to the song you will see where the parts fit in.
