Title: Fur Elise

i have figured this out along to the piece on cd in such a way that you can
play the melody and the lead at the same time. I put it on here so you can
play it without it sounding empty.
This is a tricky piece, but its worth it when you nail it.

there are no dynamic instructions on here. i could give you mine, but it
will sound
better for you with your own dynamic touches on it

intro (note- leave fingers on the note unless it is the string with fret
changes)
let them ring and hold the melody solid behind the backing.

now onto the first melodic break. the fingering here gets a little tricky.

this next bit is majorly fast and i had to drop it a couple of octaves(the
fret
board only has so many frets) may cause some confusion if learning to
recording of piece.
you can reposition the run however you like, i just find it easier to do the
chromatic run this way.
